Count of days of each month from a list of dates python
<p>How can I count the number of days of each month for current year from a list of dates in <em>python</em>. Consider I have a date list as: </p>

<pre><code>10/Mar/2016 06:39:31
16/Nov/2015 06:16:27
16/Dec/2012 06:39:31
16/Dec/2015 06:16:27
9/Mar/2016 06:16:27

</code></pre>

<p>Now I want <code>Jan-3</code> , <code>Feb-2</code>, <code>Mar-5</code> and so on.</p>

<p>I tried  </p>

<pre><code>from datetime import datetime as date_for_conv
if(times&gt; date_for_conv.strptime(times, "%d/%b/%Y %H:%M:%S").strftime("2016/Jan/%d")):
    jan+=1
</code></pre>

<p><code>times</code> is the list element iterated in a loop. This gives the count for Jan month only, I want to do it in a single condition check. What should I do?</p>
