I'd like to be able to display 2 calendars side by side, instead of stacked...
is this possible?
for instance:
print(calendar.month(year_a,month))
print()
print(calendar.month(year_b,month))
prints:
June 1971

1 2 3 4 5 6
7 8 9 10 11 12 13

but what I would like is:

The functions return strings, so you can split them into lines:
rows_a = calendar.month(year_a, month).splitlines()
rows_b = calendar.month(year_b, month).splitlines()
You can then zip them together:
rows = ['{} {}'.format(row_a, row_b) for row_a, row_b in zip(rows_a,
rows_b)]
However:
1. The 2 months might have a different number of rows. 'zip' will
truncate to the shorter one, so use itertools.zip_longest instead (give
it a fillvalue of '').
2. The lines aren't all the same length, so you'll need to pad the
left-hand one to the correct length (20 characters) to make everything
line-up.
