Provide the Date class, to represent dates in the Western calendar.

Classes

Date

Instances of this class represent a date in the Western calendar. Dates can be converted to strings, and integers can be added to and subtracted from dates to adjust them by a given number of days.

Methods defined here:

__add__(self, days): Add an integer number of days from this Date, yielding a Date. Adding a positive number will advance forward in time; adding a negative number will step backward in time.

__cmp__(self, other)

__init__(self, year, month, day): Construct a Date, given numbers for the year, month, and day.

__repr__(self)

__str__(self): Convert this date into a string in YYYY-MM-DD format.

__sub__(self, other): Subtract an integer number of days from this Date, yielding a Date. Subtracting a positive number will step backward in time; subtracting a negative number will advance forward in time.

longformat(self): Convert this date into a form such as 'February 26, 2003'.

next(self): Return the Date of the day immediately following this Date.

prev(self): Return the Date of the day immediately preceding this Date.

Data and non-method functions defined here:

__doc__ = 'Instances of this class represent a date in the... dates to adjust them by a given number of days.'

__module__ = 'ping'
