# Python calendar example
#

# import the calendar module
import calendar

# create a plain text calendar
c = calendar.TextCalendar(calendar.SUNDAY)
st = c.formatmonth(2019, 1, 1, 0)
print(st)

# create an HTML formatted calendar
hc = calendar.HTMLCalendar(calendar.SUNDAY)
st = hc.formatmonth(2019, 1)
print(st) #Prints html table based calendar

# loop over the days of a month
# zeroes mean that the day of the week is in an overlapping month
for i in c.itermonthdays(2019, 5):
    print(i)

# The Calendar module provides useful utilities for the given locale,
# such as the names of days and months in both full and abbreviated forms
for name in calendar.month_name:
    print(name)
