Python 3.8 added the fromisocalendar() method, which is even more intuitive.

from datetime import datetime
dt =datetime.fromisocalendar(2020, 1, 6)
print(dt.strftime('%m/%d/%Y'))
# 01/04/2020

Another way of doing it (Based on @MrFuppes's answer) using standard C implementation:

s = '2020 week0 Saturday'
dt = datetime.strptime(s, '%Y week%W %A')
print(dt.strftime('%m/%d/%Y'))

Bare in mind that the weekdays as well as the weeks - start in zero.

you can use ISO 8601 year and -week directives:

from datetime import datetime

s = '2020 week1 Saturday'

dt = datetime.strptime(s, '%G week%V %A')       

print(dt.strftime('%m/%d/%Y'))
# 01/04/2020
