Example
import calendar
from datetime import date
cal = calendar.month(2024, 6) # text calendar for June 2024
print(cal)
is_leap = calendar.isleap(2024) # True
weekday = date(2024, 6, 15).weekday() # 0=Mon, 5=Sat
day_name = calendar.day_name[weekday] # "Saturday"
_, last_day = calendar.monthrange(2024, 2) # 29 (leap year Feb) Pro Tip
monthrange() returns the weekday of the first day and the number of days in the month.
