I'm not totally clear how you define a week. In your example the first week starts on Friday and ends on Sunday. Subsequent weeks start on Monday and run to Sunday. So, is a week essentially a variable number of days prior to a Sunday? What do you do if a month ends on a Thursday, say? How is the last week printed? EDIT: OK I see the comment at the end now. > For example this month would have: > > 3/1/2019 - 3/3/2019 # notice that this a short week > 3/4/2019 - 3/10/2019 > 3/11/2019 - 3/17/2019 > 3/18/2019 - 3/24/2019 > 3/25/2019 - 3/31/2019 # also this can be a short week as in April 2019 > last week would be 4/29/2019 - 4/30-2019 So what I think you want is to start with the first day and print each day up to Sunday. Newline print the current date up to sunday newline repeat until you run out of days in the month. datetime has functions for extracting the date, the day and the month It also has functions for formatting the date string. Or you could use calendar to matrix representation of the month. >>> import calendar as cal >>> cal.monthcalendar(2019,3) [[0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10], [11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17], [18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24], [25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31]] >>> That looks close to what you want? -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
