Thanks to all for their rapid responses. But now I'm thinking it would be handy to not only know that, say, 500 days from today is 2014-02-18, but to know what day if the week that is. I suppose the calendar module is to be used for this, but I haven't been able to get it to work for me. So what day of the week IS 2014-02-18? The docs say calendar.weekday(year, month, day) Returns the day of the week (0 is Monday) for year (1970–...), month (1–12), day (1–31). >>> import calendar >>> calendar.weekday(2014, 2, 18) 1 That "1" means Tuesday, right? But how can I use calendar to print out that word, "TUESDAY"?
