''' I searched for a month and weekday sort function to do certain work as part of my project work.
I did get only sort function which sorts months and weekdays by alphabetical order but I need them in chronological 
order. I did not find any function which gives the results I wanted, so I am writing below functions
to get the solution I looked for. '''
