"AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'get' "

I am trying to convert English Date to equivalent Nepali date.

When I run the code I get

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'get'

This is my code:

from datetime import date
import datetime 
import time
import calendar

engMonth = int(input('Enter birth month in A.D.'))
engDate = int(input('Enter birth date in A.D.'))
engYear = int(input('Enter birth year in A.D.'))

Below is a List of no. of days in each month of each year within a valid range

Nepali year-month List where, 2000, 2001, 2002 and so on are the Nepali years and 30, 32, 31 and so on are the total days in months

nepaliMonths = [

Why not use a Python dictionary?

With a dictionary you could have something like this:

nepaliMonths = { 2000: [ 30, 32, 31, 32, 31, 30, 30, 30, 29, 30, 29, 31 ],
                 2001: [ 31, 31, 32, 31, 31, 31, 30, 29, 30, 29, 30, 30 ],

                 # Fill with rest of data . . .

                 2099: [ 31, 31, 32, 31, 31, 31, 30, 29, 29, 30, 30, 30 ] }

Then, to index your data set, simply use nepaliMonths[year][month - 1]

Example: nepaliMonths[2000][0] == 30 and nepaliMonths[2000][11] == 31

Another method:

With your current implementation, you simply use nepaliMonths[year - 2000][month - 1]

Example: nepaliMonths[0][0] == 30 and nepaliMonths[0][11] == 31

nepaliMonths is a list, and indeed, lists do not have a .get() method.

Perhaps you meant nepaliMonths[nepYear - startingNepYear][nepMonth]?
