  • Define variable curMonth and calculate the month in it
  • Return output
  • Define the assert condition in the code
  • Call function get_month and print the output
Program

def get_month(date): #function

    month = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'] #list

    curMonth = int(date.split('/')[0])-1 #calculate month

    return month[curMonth] #return output

assert(get_month('1/23/2020') == 'Jan') #command given in question

print('1/23/2020: ', get_month('1/23/2020')) #print statement
