Python Basic: Exercise-12 with Solution

Write a Python program to print the calendar of a given month and year.

Note: Use 'calendar' module.

Python calendar.month(theyear, themonth, w=0, l=0):

The function returns a month’s calendar in a multi-line string using the formatmonth() of the TextCalendar class.

'l' specifies the number of lines that each week will use.

Pictorial Presentation:

Print the calendar of a given month and year

Sample Solution:-

Python Code:

import calendar
y = int(input("Input the year : "))
m = int(input("Input the month : "))
print(calendar.month(y, m))

Sample Output:

Input the year : 2017                                                                                         
Input the month : 04                                                                                          
     April 2017

Python: Tips of the Day

Find current directory and file's directory:

To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

To get the current working directory use

import os
cwd = os.getcwd()

Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:

The os and os.path modules.
The __file__ constant
os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
