Unit 3 Sections 14-15 Homework

Create a program that asks the user for a day and then gives them a distance in days between that day and another random day in the year. We have provided you with a possible starter, but you are welcome to change it up if you would like.

dateDays = maxDate - minDate
totalDays = dateDays.days
randDay = random.randrange(totalDays)

1914-11-19

Enter a day, month, and year in the 'dd-mm-yyyy' format or type 'quit' to quit.
1914-11-19 is 32216 days, 0:00:00 away from 2 - 1 - 2003 .

Enter a day, month, and year in the 'dd-mm-yyyy' format or type 'quit' to quit.
Loop exited.
