Calculating Hebrew date in Python

Question

I'd like to calculate Hebrew dates (primarily the current Hebrew date) in Python. Which library is mature, easy to use, and documented? I note these. There may be others.

• Python Date Utilities Library as discussed here
• Calendrical
• libhdate Python bindings
• This informal code listing.

Answer 1

The Python Date Utilities library (available on sourceforge) seems to be fine to do what you want, for more specific usage with hebrew dates you could have a look here, there are a lot of examples with many code snippets that should fit your needs i think.

Also, look at Calendrical Calculations books. Very, very helpful. emr.cs.iit.edu/home/reingold/calendar-book/second-edition – Jordanson
