This program gives you the number of days between two dates given in the YYYY-MM-DD format: ======================================================================== #!/usr/bin/env python3 import sys def gregorian_day_count(isodate): year, month, day = map(int, isodate.split('-')) a, b = divmod(12 * year + month - 3, 12) return (a * 365 + (a >> 2) - (a * 1311 >> 17) + (a * 1311 >> 19) + + (31306 * b + 722 >> 10)) def main(): print(gregorian_day_count(sys.argv[2]) - gregorian_day_count(sys.argv[1])) if __name__ == '__main__': main() ======================================================================== Divide the number by 7 and you have your answer.
