Python is a great language for doing data analysis, primarily because of the fantastic ecosystem of data-centric python packages. Pandas is one of those packages and makes importing and analyzing data much easier.
Pandas Timestamp.weekday_name attribute return the name of the day of the week for the given date in the Timestamp object.
Syntax : Timestamp.weekday_name
Parameters : None
Return : name of the week day
Example #1: Use Timestamp.weekday_name attribute to find the name of the weekday for the given date in the Timestamp object.
# importing pandas as pd import pandas as pd # Create the Timestamp object ts = pd.Timestamp(year = 2011, month = 11, day = 21, hour = 10, second = 49, tz = 'US/Central') # Print the Timestamp object print(ts) |
Output :
Now we will use the Timestamp.weekday_name attribute to find the weekday name.
# return the name of the weekday ts.weekday_name |
Output :
As we can see in the output, the Timestamp.weekday_name attribute has returned ‘Monday’ indicating that the date in the given Timestamp object is ‘Monday’.
Example #2: Use Timestamp.weekday_name attribute to find the name of the weekday for the given date in the Timestamp object.
# importing pandas as pd import pandas as pd # Create the Timestamp object ts = pd.Timestamp(year = 2009, month = 5, day = 31, hour = 4, second = 49, tz = 'Europe/Berlin') # Print the Timestamp object print(ts) |
Output :
Now we will use the Timestamp.weekday_name attribute to find the weekday name.
# return the name of the weekday ts.weekday_name |
Output :
As we can see in the output, the Timestamp.weekday_name attribute has returned ‘Sunday’ indicating that the date in the given Timestamp object is ‘Sunday’.
