python question

Question

You go on a wonderful holiday (perhaps to jail, if you don’t like happy exercises) leaving on day number 3 (a Wednesday). You return home after 137 sleeps. Write a general version of the program which asks for the starting day number, and the length of your stay, and it will tell you the name of day of the week you will return on.

Answer 1

If you're asking if this is possible yes and it's very simple, see below.

from datetime import date, timedelta

import calendar

stay_time = 5

d0 = date(2017, 8, 18)

d1 = d0 + timedelta(days=stay_time)

delta = d1 + d0

print(calendar.day_name[delta.weekday()])
