I'm too lazy to look around for a ready-to-use solution, so here's my own:
$ cat side_by_side.py
from itertools import zip_longest
def zip_lines(*columns, sep=" "):
columns = [c.splitlines() for c in columns]
widths = [max(len(s) for s in c) for c in columns]
return "\n".join(
sep.join(c.ljust(w) for c, w in zip(row, widths))
for row in zip_longest(*columns, fillvalue="")
)
if __name__ == "__main__":
import calendar
print(zip_lines(calendar.month(2016, 1), calendar.month(2015, 1)))
print()
columns = [calendar.month(2016, month) for month in range(6, 9)]
print(zip_lines(*columns, sep=" | "))
$ python3 side_by_side.py
