Calendar Module:
The calendar module allows you to output calendars like a program and includes extra calendar-related operations. Calendar module functions and classes make use of an idealized calendar, the current Gregorian calendar extended in both directions indefinitely.
formatyear() Method:
The formatyear() method returns a multi-line string containing an m-column calendar for a full year.
To generate plain text calendars, class calendar.TextCalendar(firstweekday=0) can be used.The formatyear() method is one of the TextCalendar instance’s methods.
Syntax:
formatyear(year, width=2, lines=1, c=6, m=3)
Parameter Values:
year: This is required. It is a number. It is the year for which the calendar should be created.
width: This is Optional. It is a number. The distance between two columns. 2 is the default value.
lines: This is Optional. It is a number. A blank line between two rows. 1 is the default value.
c: This is Optional. It is a number. It is the space between two months (column-wise). 6 is the default value.
m: This is Optional. It is a number. It is the number of months in a row. 3 is the default value.
Return Value: A m-column calendar for the whole year is returned.
Program for calendar formatyear() Method with Examples in Python
Method #1: Using Built-in Functions (Static Input)
Example1:
Approach:
- Import calendar module using the import keyword.
- Give the year as static input and store it in a variable.
- Give the width as static input and store it in another variable.
- Call the TextCalendar() function by setting firstweekday=0 and store it in another variable.
- Apply formatyear() method to the above text calendar by passing the given year, width as the arguments and store it in another variable.
- Print the above result.
- The Exit of the Program.
Below is the implementation:
# Import calendar module using the import keyword. import calendar # Give the year as static input and store it in a variable. gvn_yr = 2015 # Give the width as static input and store it in another variable. gvn_widt = 3 # Call the TextCalendar() function by setting firstweekday=0 and store it in # another variable. txt_calndr = calendar.TextCalendar(firstweekday=0) # Apply formatyear() method to the above text calendar by passing the given year, # width,as the arguments and store it in another variable. rslt = txt_calndr.formatyear(gvn_yr, gvn_widt) # Print the above result. print(rslt)
Output:
2015
