Get Day name from Weekday int

Question

I have a weekday integer (0,1,2...) and I need to get the day name (\'Monday\', \'Tuesday\',...).

Is there a built in Python function or way of doing this?

You can create your own list and use it with format.

import datetime

days_ES = ["Domingo", "Lunes", "Martes", "Miércoles", "Jueves", "Viernes", "Sábado"]

t = datetime.datetime.now()
f = t.strftime("{%w} %Y-%m-%d").format(*days_ES)

print(f)

Prints:

Lunes 2018-03-12
