This is almost correct, only that datetime.now() alone returns the full date including time and timezone. The challenge only needs the date, find a way to pull this off.
Hint: add another attribute to this line to specify the date alone.


"""
# Use todays date to get the name on the day of the week written in a short
# form with the first letter capitalized (e.g) 'Fri' if today were Friday and
# assigns it a variable 'day'

day = datetime.date(date).strftime('%a')
