Package name: `python-dateutil`
!!!

===

`dateutil` can be used to calculate a future date (e.g. in 6 months). The calculation is not based on financial month (30 days/month), but respects the different lenghts of the months.

To calculate the future date of a given date, you could use the following code:
~~~py
date = datetime.now()
date = date + relativedelta(months=+6)
~~~
