In NumPy we can find the number of weekdays in a given month with the help of busday_count() In this pass the given month is the first parameter and next month as the second parameter. It will return the total number of weekdays in a given month.
Syntax:
numpy.busday_count(begindates, enddates, weekmask)
Parameters:
begindates: The array of the first dates for counting.
enddates: The array of the end dates for counting, which are excluded from the count themselves.
weekmask: Select the days
Weekdays are from Monday to Friday only.
Example #1:
Python3
import numpy as np
# Number of weekdays in july 2020 print("Number of weekdays in july 2020:",
np.busday_count('2020-07', '2020-08'))
|
Output:
Number of weekdays in july 2020: 23
Example #2: We can count the number of Sat with this weekmask.
Python3
import numpy as np
# Number of weekdays in August 2020 print("Number of saturday in november 2020:",
np.busday_count('2020-11', '2020-12',
weekmask='Sat'))
|
Output:
Number of saturday in november 2020: 4
Example #3: Count the number of Sunday.
Python3
import numpy as np
# Number of weekdays in August 2020 print("Number of Sunday in november 2020:",
np.busday_count('2020-11', '2020-12',
weekmask='Sun'))
|
Output:
Number of Sunday in november 2020: 5
