Right, because you're using the datetime _class_ to get the

Yeah. because _those_ lines are using the name "datetime" as the module
name.
Just replace "datetime.datetime" throughout with "datetime". Your code
will be more readable anyway.

That is because "datetime" is currently the class, not the module.

That will work, but produces verbose code. I prefer to import things
_from_ the datetime module, letting me drop the 'datetime." module
prefix across the code.

I've changed the line to:
print(data.decode('utf8'))
and prints it now nice but not sure how to apply yet:
print (string.splitlines( ))
and PING PONG matter.

Cool. You're going to have to iterate over the lines and process each
one individually. IRC is a line-based protocol and every line has its
own meaning. But, again, this is where an IRC library would help
enormously; it'll do all of that parsing (including taking care of
edge cases that you might not have thought of), and let you just
handle the parts that are interesting, like responding to specific
messages from people.

Yes, I know about irc libraries but I do it for educational purposes,
when wrtiting it myself I do learn all the time new things.

I have no clue figuring out how to check dates in workholidays
Hi, Thank you for allowing me in this support mailing list. My experience with Python is short due to my new job. My boss told me that I need to create a code that checks yesterday's date. The conditions for returning none are that: - Yesterday happens to be a holiday, - Yesterday turns out to be a Saturday or a Sunday. For both reasons, it needs to return None. Now I have learned to scan a text file, and I have learned (ROUGHLY) the structure of what seems to scan for specific words in "Indented Comments". The file "gwd.py" that I have joined stands for getWorkingDate. It is the rough draft that I am creating. So what I wish is you to help me get a basic structure of what I need to edit and get gwd.py to scan cameroon.py; once everyday the gwd.py checks yesterday's date and if it fills the above conditions, it returns none. That is all. Please note that creating a separate file with the list of national holidays is ok but then I prefer using the holidays library because it evolves with the years, if you know what I mean. Please forgive my lack of proper expression as well as I have been going through Python for exactly five weeks only. Jean Jacques ECKEBIL -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Questions about XML processing?
Thank you Terry, Dan and Dieter for encouraging me to post here. I have
already solved the problem albeit with a not so efficient solution.
Perhaps, it is useful to present it here anyway in case some light can
be added to this.
My job is to parse a complicated XML (iso metadata) and pick up values
of certain fields in certain conditions. This goes for the most part
well. I am working with xml.etree.elementtree, which proved sufficient
for the most part and the rest of the project. JSON is not an option
within this project.
The specific trouble was in this section, itself the child of a more
complicated parent: (for simplicity tags are renamed and namespaces removed)
Something
Something else
value
2020-11-06
Basically, I have to get what is in tagC/string but only if the value of
tagC/note/title/string is "value". As you see, there are several tagC,
all children of tagB, but tagC can have different meanings(!). And no, I
have no control over how these XML fields are constructed.
In principle it is easy to make a "findall" and get strings for tagC, using:
elem.findall("./tagA/tagB/tagC/string")
and then get the content and append in case there is more than one
tagC/string like: "Something, Something else".
However, the hard thing to do here is to get those only when
tagC/note/title/string='value'. I was expecting to find a way of
specifying a certain construction in square brackets, like
[@string='value'] or [@/tagC/note/title/string='value'], as is usual in
XML and possible in xml.etree. However this proved difficult (at least
for me). So this is the "brute" solution I implemented:
- find all children of tagA/tagB
- check if /tagA/tagB/tagC/note/title/string has "value"
- if yes find all tagA/tagB/tagC/string
In quasi-Python:
string = []
element0 = elem.findall("./tagA/tagB/")
for element1 in element0:
element2 = element1.find("./tagA/tagB/tagC/note/title/string")
if element2.text == 'value'
element3 = element1.findall("./tagA/tagB/tagC/string)
for element4 in element3:
string.append(element4.text)
Crude, but works. As I wrote above, I was wishing that a bracketed
clause of the type [@ ...] already in the first "findall" would do a
more efficient job but alas my knowledge of xml is too rudimentary.
Perhaps something to tinker on in the coming weeks.
Have a nice weekend!

Libraries are a slow learning process for me
The Python import command does some stuff behind the scenes, but from
the programmer viewpoint, you're just manipulating names in namespaces -
making a mapping of a name to the relevant object.
import boo
gives you a name 'boo' in the relevant namespace, which refers to the
module object made for boo when it was imported (that's some of the
behind the scenes stuff).
A quick interactive sample showing this in action:
>>> globals()
{'__name__': '__main__', '__doc__': None, '__package__': None,
'__loader__': , '__spec__':
None, '__annotations__': {}, '__builtins__': }
>>> import sys
>>> globals()
{'__name__': '__main__', '__doc__': None, '__package__': None,
'__loader__': , '__spec__':
None, '__annotations__': {}, '__builtins__': (built-in)>, 'sys': }
here's the case you are running into:
>>> import datetime
>>> globals()
{'__name__': '__main__', '__doc__': None, '__package__': None,
'__loader__': , '__spec__':
None, '__annotations__': {}, '__builtins__': (built-in)>, 'datetime': '/usr/lib64/python3.8/datetime.py'>}
>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> globals()
{'__name__': '__main__', '__doc__': None, '__package__': None,
'__loader__': , '__spec__':
None, '__annotations__': {}, '__builtins__': (built-in)>, 'datetime': }
If you want to import the datetime class and still have the full
datetime module available, you can for example import as a different
name - here's a sample of that:
>>> import datetime as dt
>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> globals()
{'__name__': '__main__', '__doc__': None, '__package__': None,
'__loader__': , '__spec__':
None, '__annotations__': {}, '__builtins__': (built-in)>, 'dt': '/usr/lib64/python3.8/datetime.py'>, 'datetime': 'datetime.datetime'>}
Does this make it clearer?

A remark: that is unusual. Normally this would be a "logical" test: is yesterday a workholiday or not, returning True or False accordingly.
