Answer 1

I've used the code below when dealing with dataframes that have a datetime index.

import pandas as pd
import math

def add_week_of_month(df):
    df['week_in_month'] = pd.to_numeric(df.index.day/7)
    df['week_in_month'] = df['week_in_month'].apply(lambda x: math.ceil(x))
    return df

If you run this example:

df = test = pd.DataFrame({'count':['a','b','c','d','e']},
                     index = ['2018-01-01', '2018-01-08','2018-01-31','2018-02-01','2018-02-28'])
df.index = pd.to_datetime(df.index)

you should get the following dataframe

               count  week_in_month

2018-01-01     a              1
2018-01-08     b              2
2018-01-31     c              5
2018-02-01     d              1
2018-02-28     e              4
