Python list of first day of month for given period

Question

I am trying find an efficient way of creating a list of dates only including the first day of the month for a given period. Something like this but better:

impor         


        

Answer 1

import datetime 
import calendar 
import re
from datetime import date

def findDay(date): 
    born = datetime.datetime.strptime(date, '%Y %m %d').weekday() 
    return (calendar.day_name[born]) 

def hyp(j):    
    no_hyphens = re.sub('-',' ',str(j))
    return no_hyphens

def send(year_start):    
    date = hyp(year_start)
    print (date)
    print(findDay(date))

epoch_year = 2019
for i in range(1,13):
    year_start = date(epoch_year, i, 1)
    send(year_start)
