Last update on December 21 2024 07:27:30 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a Python program to get the week number.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

# Import the datetime module
import datetime

# Create a datetime object representing the date 'June 16, 2015' and retrieve its ISO calendar week number
# The isocalendar() method returns a tuple containing year, week number, and weekday
# We access the second element of the tuple, which represents the week number, using [1]
print(datetime.date(2015, 6, 16).isocalendar()[1])

Output:

25

Explanation:

In the exercise above,

• The code imports the datetime module.
• Get ISO Calendar week number:
• It creates a "datetime" object representing the date 'June 16, 2015' using datetime.date(2015, 6, 16).
• Then, it retrieves the ISO calendar week number of that date using the "isocalendar()" method.
• The "isocalendar()" method returns a tuple containing year, week number, and weekday.
• By accessing the second element of the tuple ([1]), which represents the week number, it obtains the ISO calendar week number.
• Printing Results:
• It prints the ISO calendar week number of the date 'June 16, 2015' using "print()".
