Help Me With My Python. by BlowJobs(op): 8:08pm On Jan 26, 2015*

Hello, guys. i am new to Nairaland.

i need help with my python programming

i am trying to solve this problem, it's my first exercise and i just picked up python like 4 days ago.

month_days= [('January',[31]),('February',[28,29]),('March',[31]), ('April',[30]),('May',[31]),('June',[30]),('July',[31]),('August',[31]),
('September',[30]),('October',[31]),('November',[30]),('December',[31]) ]
day_names = ['Monday','Tuesday','Wednesday','Thursday','Friday','Saturday','Sunday']
Problem 1
Write a function days_in_month which takes a month as an argument and finds the corresponding month in the month_days list and returns the number of days associated with that month.
>>> days_in_month('December')
[31]
>>> days_in_month('February')
[28, 29]

i really don't know how to go about it. i have been reading the ThinkPython for some days now
Thanks

month_days= [('January',[31]),('February',[28,29]),('March',[31]), ('April',[30]),('May',[31]),('June',[30]),('July',[31]),('August',[31]),
('September',[30]),('October',[31]),('November',[30]),('December',[31]) ]

def days_in_month(month):
global month_days
return filter(lambda x: x[0] == month, month_days)[0][1]

If you are using Python 3.x remember to add
'from functools import filter' at the top of the file.

I will drop an example and you will Use the idea

>>>def name_and_age(name):
Name_and_age={'nastydroid':'17','name:'34','phython':'21'}
Print(name_and_age[name])

>>> name_and_age('python')
