== Script structure and sample template ==
 
Your code should all be in a single python file with at least the functions mentioned above: dbda(), after(), and before(). To earn the maximum mark, you should also create additional functions into your algorithm, e.g.: leap_year(), days_in_mon, valid_date(), usage(), etc
 
 
The following is a brief description of each function:
 
 
* The dbda() function should be the main function of your script. The dbda() function will take a date in "YYYY/MM/DD" format, a positive or negative integer, and return a date either before or after the given date according to the value of the given integer in the same format. Your dbda() function should delegate the actual calculation of the target date to either the after() function or the before() function.
 
* The before() function will take a date in "YYYY/MM/DD" format and return the date of the previous day in the same format.
 
* The after() function will take a date in "YYYY/MM/DD" format and return the date of the next day in the same format. Next paragraph is a sample python code for the after() function. To earn the maximum possible mark for the assignment, you should modify the sample after() function to make use of the days_in_mon() function.
 
* The leap_year() function will take a year in "YYYY" format, and return True if the given year is a leap year, otherwise return False.
 
* The valid_date() function will take a date in "YYYY/MM/DD" format, and return True if the given date is a valid date, otherwise return False plus an appropriate status message. The valid_date() function should make use of the days_in_mon() function.
 
* The days_in_mon() function will take a year in "YYYY" format, and return a dictionary object which contains the total number of days in each month for the given year. The days_in_mon() function should make use of the leap_year() function.
 
* The usage() function will take no argument and return a string describing the usage of the script.

Overview

You have successfully design an algorithm to compute the date which is n day before or after a given date. You have also successfully implement your algorithm using the Python language by identify the functions that are need to perform the computation.

In this assignment, you are going to re-implement the algorithm you have for assignment 1 using python class. You are going to create a new programmer-define object call Date with the appropriate data attributes and function attributes to support the necessary manipulation of date object needed to implement your algorithm for assignment 1.

Your python script must follow the following coding guide:

Class Requirements

Programmer-defined object type: Date

  • Data Attributes: year, month, and day as integer
  • Method attributes: tomorrow(), yesterday(), day_of_week()
  • Operator Overloading:
    • '+': perform addition for two Date() object, and one date object and an integer.
    • '-': perfome substraction for two Date() object, and one date object and an integer
  • Special methods:
    • __init__(self): Date object constructor
    • __repr__(self): return date object as a string in "yyyy-mm-dd" format
    • __str__(self): return date object as a string in "yyyy:mm:dd" format
  • Supporting function:
    • days_to_time(): convert an integer which is n days from epoch (Jan 1, 1970) to a corresponding date object.

Required Modules and Functions

Your python script is allowed to import only the os and sys modules from the standard library and all the built-in functions.

Documentation

  • Please use python's docstring to document your new python class, class functions and external functions. The docstring should describe 'what' the class is for, what does each class function do, what each data attribute is for.

Authorship Declaration

Your Python code for the Date class and its associated functions must be placed in a single source python file. Please include the following declaration as part of the docstring in your Python source code file (replace "Student Name" with your own name):

OPS435 Assignment 2P - Fall 2019
Program: a1_[student_id].py (replace student_id with your Seneca User name)
Author: "Student Name"
The python code in this file (a1_[Student_id].py) is original work written by
"Student Name". No code in this file is copied from any other source 
except those provided by the course instructor, including any person, 
textbook, or on-line resource. I have not shared this python script 
with anyone or anything except for submission for grading.  
I understand that the Academic Honesty Policy will be enforced and 
violators will be reported and appropriate action will be taken.

Tests and Test results

You must name your class definition python script for Date as a2_class.py. The following test scripts are for testing your class definition. The test scripts can be used to test the date objects created by using your Date class.

Please review those tests that failed and try to fix it in your class definition to address any bugs you may have.

Test for tomorrow and yesterday methods

Start up an interactive Python session and issue the following python statments:
[raymond.chan@mtrx-node04pd a2p]$ python3
Python 3.6.8 (default, May  2 2019, 20:40:44) 
[GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-36)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from a2_class import *
>>> dir()
['Date', '__annotations__', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__spec__', 'daysb4month', 'int_to_date']
>>> d1 = Date(2019,11,6)
>>> d1.tomorrow()
2019-11-07
>>> d1.yesterday()
2019-11-05
>>> print(d1.tomorrow())
2019/11/07
>>> print(d1.yesterday())
2019/11/05
>>> d2 = Date(2019,2,28)
>>> d2.tomorrow()
2019-03-01
>>> d2.yesterday()
2019-02-27
>>> d3 = Date(2016,2,28)
>>> d3.tomorrow()
2016-02-29
>>> d3.yesterday()
2016-02-27
>>> d4 = Date(2018,12,31)
>>> d4.tomorrow()
2019-01-01

Test for operator overloading '+' and '-'

>>> d2
2019-02-28

>>> d2 + 1
2019-03-01

>>> d2 + 2
2019-03-02

>>> d3
2016-02-28

>>> d3 + 1
2016-02-29

>>> (d3 + 1) - 1
2016-02-28

>>> d3 - 1
2016-02-27

>>> d4
2018-12-31

>>> d4 + 365
2019-12-31

>>> d4 - 365
2017-12-31

Test for day of the week method

The day of week on Jan 1, 1970 is Thursday. The date.day_of_week() method should return the day of week for the give date in numeric form.
0 - Sun,
1 - Mon,
2 - Tue,
3 - Wed,
4 - Thu,
5 - Friday, and
6 - Saturday
>>> d1 = Date(2019,11,7)
>>> d1
2019-11-07
>>> d1.day_of_week()
4
>>> d2 = d1 + 7
>>> d2
2019-11-14
>>> d2.day_of_week()
4
>>>
