\section{\module{calendar} ---
General calendar-related functions}
\declaremodule{standard}{calendar}
\modulesynopsis{Functions for working with calendars,
including some emulation of the \UNIX\ \program{cal}
program.}
\sectionauthor{Drew Csillag}{drew_csillag@geocities.com}
This module allows you to output calendars like the \UNIX{}
\program{cal} program, and provides additional useful functions
related to the calendar. By default, these calendars have Monday as
the first day of the week, and Sunday as the last (the European
convention). Use \function{setfirstweekday()} to set the first day of the
week to Sunday (6) or to any other weekday. Parameters that specify
dates are given as integers.
Most of these functions and classses rely on the \module{datetime}
module which uses an idealized calendar, the current Gregorian
calendar indefinitely extended in both directions. This matches
the definition of the "proleptic Gregorian" calendar in Dershowitz
and Reingold's book "Calendrical Calculations", where it's the
base calendar for all computations.
\begin{classdesc}{Calendar}{\optional{firstweekday}}
Creates a \class{Calendar} object. \var{firstweekday} is an integer
specifying the first day of the week. 0 is Monday, 6 is Sunday.
A \class{Calendar} object provides several method that can
be used for preparing the calendar data for formatting. This
class doesn't do any formatting itself. This is the job of
subclasses.
\versionadded{2.5}
\begin{methoddesc}{firstweekday}{}
Return the first day of the week (as specified in the constructor
or changed via \method{setfirstweekday()}.
\begin{methoddesc}{setfirstweekday}{weekday}
Set the first day of the week.
\begin{methoddesc}{iterweekdays}{weekday}
Return an iterator for the week day numbers that will be used
for one week. The first number from the iterator will be the
same as the number return by \method{firstweekday()}.
\begin{methoddesc}{itermonthdates}{year, month}
Return an iterator for the month \var{month} (1-12) in the
year \var{year}. This iterator will return all days (as
\class{datetime.date} objects) for the month and all days
before the start of the month or after the end of the month
that are required to get a complete week.
\begin{methoddesc}{itermonthdays2}{year, month}
Return an iterator for the month \var{month} in the year
\var{year} similar to \method{itermonthdates()}. Days returned
will be tuple consisting of a day number and a week day
number.
\begin{methoddesc}{itermonthdays}{year, month}
Return an iterator for the month \var{month} in the year
\var{year} similar to \method{itermonthdates()}. Days returned
will simply be day numbers.
\begin{methoddesc}{monthdatescalendar}{year, month}
Return a list of the weeks in the month \var{month} of
the \var{year} as full weeks. Weeks are lists of seven
\class{datetime.date} objects.
\begin{methoddesc}{monthdays2calendar}{year, month}
Return a list of the weeks in the month \var{month} of
the \var{year} as full weeks. Weeks are lists of seven
tuples of day numbers and weekday numbers.
\begin{methoddesc}{monthdayscalendar}{year, month}
Return a list of the weeks in the month \var{month} of
the \var{year} as full weeks. Weeks are lists of seven
day numbers.
\begin{methoddesc}{yeardatescalendar}{year, month\optional{, width}}
Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting. The return
value is a list of month rows. Each month row contains upto \var{width}
months (defaulting to 3). Each month contains between 4 and 6 weeks and
each week contains 1-7 days. Days are \class{datetime.date} objects.
\begin{methoddesc}{yeardays2calendar}{year, month\optional{, width}}
Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting (similar to
\method{yeardatescalendar()}). Entries in the week lists are tuples of
day numbers and weekday numbers. Day numbers outside this month are zero.
\begin{methoddesc}{yeardayscalendar}{year, month\optional{, width}}
Return the data for the specified year ready for formatting (similar to
\method{yeardatescalendar()}). Entries in the week lists are day numbers.
Day numbers outside this month are zero.
\begin{classdesc}{TextCalendar}{\optional{firstweekday}}
This class can be used for generating plain text calendars.
\versionadded{2.5}
\begin{methoddesc}{formatmonth}{theyear, themonth\optional{, w\optional{, l}}}
Returns a month's calendar in a multi-line string. If \var{w} is
provided, it specifies the width of the date columns, which are
centered. If \var{l} is given, it specifies the number of lines that
each week will use. Depends on the first weekday as set by
\function{setfirstweekday()}.
\begin{methoddesc}{prmonth}{theyear, themonth\optional{, w\optional{, l}}}
Prints a month's calendar as returned by \method{formatmonth()}.
\begin{methoddesc}{formatyear}{theyear, themonth\optional{, w\optional{, l\optional{, c\optional{, m}}}}}
Returns a \var{m}-column calendar for an entire year as a multi-line string.
Optional parameters \var{w}, \var{l}, and \var{c} are for date column
width, lines per week, and number of spaces between month columns,
respectively. Depends on the first weekday as set by
\method{setfirstweekday()}. The earliest year for which a calendar can
be generated is platform-dependent.
\begin{methoddesc}{pryear}{theyear\optional{, w\optional{, l\optional{, c\optional{, m}}}}}
Prints the calendar for an entire year as returned by \method{formatyear()}.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{classdesc}{HTMLCalendar}{\optional{firstweekday}}
This class can be used for generating HTML calendars.
\versionadded{2.5}
\begin{methoddesc}{formatmonth}{theyear, themonth\optional{, withyear}}
Returns a month's calendar as an HTML table. If \var{withyear} is
true the year will be included in the header, otherwise just the
monthname will be used.
\begin{methoddesc}{formatyear}{theyear, themonth\optional{, width}}
Returns a year's calendar as an HTML table. \var{width} (defaulting to 3)
specifies the number of months per row.
\begin{methoddesc}{formatyearpage}{theyear, themonth\optional{, width\optional{, css\optional{, encoding}}}}
Returns a year's calendar as an complete HTML page. \var{width}
(defaulting to 3) specifies the number of months per row. \var{css}
is the name for the cascading style sheet to be used. \constant{None}
can be passed, if no style sheet should be used. \var{encoding}
specifies the encoding to be used for the output (defaulting
the the system default encoding).
For simple text calendars this module provides the following functions.
\begin{funcdesc}{setfirstweekday}{weekday}
Sets the weekday (\code{0} is Monday, \code{6} is Sunday) to start
each week. The values \constant{MONDAY}, \constant{TUESDAY},
\constant{WEDNESDAY}, \constant{THURSDAY}, \constant{FRIDAY},
\constant{SATURDAY}, and \constant{SUNDAY} are provided for
convenience. For example, to set the first weekday to Sunday:
\begin{verbatim}
import calendar
calendar.setfirstweekday(calendar.SUNDAY)
\end{verbatim}
\versionadded{2.0}
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{firstweekday}{}
Returns the current setting for the weekday to start each week.
\versionadded{2.0}
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{isleap}{year}
Returns \constant{True} if \var{year} is a leap year, otherwise
\constant{False}.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{leapdays}{y1, y2}
Returns the number of leap years in the range
[\var{y1}\ldots\var{y2}), where \var{y1} and \var{y2} are years.
\versionchanged[This function didn't work for ranges spanning
a century change in Python 1.5.2]{2.0}
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{weekday}{year, month, day}
Returns the day of the week (\code{0} is Monday) for \var{year}
(\code{1970}--\ldots), \var{month} (\code{1}--\code{12}), \var{day}
(\code{1}--\code{31}).
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{weekheader}{n}
Return a header containing abbreviated weekday names. \var{n} specifies
the width in characters for one weekday.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{monthrange}{year, month}
Returns weekday of first day of the month and number of days in month,
for the specified \var{year} and \var{month}.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{monthcalendar}{year, month}
Returns a matrix representing a month's calendar. Each row represents
a week; days outside of the month a represented by zeros.
Each week begins with Monday unless set by \function{setfirstweekday()}.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{prmonth}{theyear, themonth\optional{, w\optional{, l}}}
Prints a month's calendar as returned by \function{month()}.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{month}{theyear, themonth\optional{, w\optional{, l}}}
Returns a month's calendar in a multi-line string using the
\method{formatmonth} of the \class{TextCalendar} class.
\versionadded{2.0}
\end{funcdesc}

using the \method{formatyear} of the \class{TextCalendar} class.
\versionadded{2.0}
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{timegm}{tuple}
An unrelated but handy function that takes a time tuple such as
returned by the \function{gmtime()} function in the \refmodule{time}
module, and returns the corresponding \UNIX{} timestamp value, assuming
an epoch of 1970, and the POSIX encoding. In fact,
\function{time.gmtime()} and \function{timegm()} are each others' inverse.
\versionadded{2.0}
\end{funcdesc}
The \module{calendar} module exports the following data attributes:
\begin{datadesc}{day_name}
An array that represents the days of the week in the
current locale.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{day_abbr}
An array that represents the abbreviated days of the week
in the current locale.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{month_name}
An array that represents the months of the year in the
current locale. This follows normal convention
of January being month number 1, so it has a length of 13 and
\code{month_name[0]} is the empty string.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{month_abbr}
An array that represents the abbreviated months of the year
in the current locale. This follows normal convention
of January being month number 1, so it has a length of 13 and
