pandas.Period.days_in_month#

Period.days_in_month#

Get the total number of days in the month that this period falls on.

This value depends on the month and whether the year is a leap year (e.g., February has 28 or 29 days).

The value comes from the last day of the first unit of the period’s frequency, so a "2M" period uses the last day of its first month.
