Calendar Problem

[Victor Subervi]

Hi;
I have the following:

import calendar, datetime

myCal = calendar.calendar(6)
today = datetime.date.today()
day = today.day
mo = today.month
yr = today.year
month = myCal.monthdayscalendar(yr, mo)

The last line throws errors no matter how I try and tweak it. The current incarnation complains about myCal being a string. What do?
TIA,
Victor

You should use

myCal = calendar.Calendar(6)

This creates calendar.Calendar object.

Right. But I wanted to tell the OP what to do with an error like this.


You should post the actual error traceback, and tell us what version of
Python you're using:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "M:\Programming\Python\sources\dummy\stuff2.py", line 15, in <module>
month = myCal.monthdayscalendar(yr, mo)
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'monthdayscalendar'


Now, since it says that myCal is a 'str' object, the next thing you
should do is look at the value. I get an actual printable calendar for a
year. So clearly, it's not the Calendar object you were looking for. So
you need to change from the calendar() function to the Calendar()
constructor.

Well, you're right. That's what I initially had. My server, that I am in the process of leaving, rejected that syntax. Lovely.
Thanks,

What version of Python does that server use? The calendar.Calendar class
first appeared in Python 2.5. I suspect your server is using an older
version.
