I've started off with this.

def month(n): lst = ['Months','Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'] lst.index(x)

I need it to work as follows:

 >>>first = month(1) >>>first 'Jan' >>> second = month(11) >>> second 'Nov'

How can this be done?

Why not use a dictionary?

lst = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'] months = dict(zip(range(1, 13), lst)) month = months.get month(1) # Jan
