We are going to explore different methods of calendar module in this tutorial. Let's see one by one.
calendar.monthrange(year, month)
The method calendar.monthrange(year, month) returns starting weekday number and number of days of the given month. It returns two values in a tuple. Let's see one example.
Example
# importing the calendar module
import calendar
# initializing year and month
year = 2019
month = 1
# getting the tuple of weekday and no. of days
weekday, no_of_days = calendar.monthrange(year, month)
print(f'Weekday number: {weekday}')
print(f'No. of days: {no_of_days}')Output
If you run the above code, you will get the following results.
Weekday number: 1 No. of days: 31
calendar.prcal(year)
The method calendar.prcal(year) prints the calendar of the year without print function.
Example
# importing the calendar module import calendar # initializing year year = 2019 # printing the calendar using prcal() method calendar.prcal(year)
Output
If you run the above program, you will get the following results.
calendar.weekday(year, month, day)
