Parse data into three logs

In the bit of code below:

• How can I make add_day, add_ week and add_month work as a single function? They are almost copy-paste of one another. I'm trying to follow the DRY rule.

• How can I set this so that I don't use the variables day/week/cur_day?

```
import datetime
from collections import defaultdict

class ParsedData:
def __init__(self, date, score, status, item_name):
year, month, self.day = date.split("-")
self.month = datetime.date(int(year), int(month), int(self.day)).strftime("%B")
self.score = int(score)
self.status = status
self.item_name = item_name

class Log:
def __init__(self):
self.day = {}
self.week = {}
self.month = {}
self.counter = {}

self.default_data

def add_day(self, day, status, item_name, score):
day = 'Day %i' % day
if day not in self.day:
self.day[day] = {"Comp": defaultdict(int),
"Miss": defaultdict(int),
"Post": defaultdict(int),
"Add": defaultdict(int),
"Score": 0}

self.day[day][status][item_name] += 1
self.day[day]['Score'] = score

def add_week(self, week, status, item_name, score):
week = 'Week %i' % week
if week not in self.week:
self.week[week] = {"Comp": defaultdict(int),
"Miss": defaultdict(int),
"Post": defaultdict(int),
"Add": defaultdict(int),
"Score": 0}

self.week[week][status][item_name] += 1
self.week[week]['Score'] = score

def add_month(self, month, status, item_name, score):
if month not in self.month:
self.month[month] = {"Comp": defaultdict(int),
"Miss": defaultdict(int),
"Post": defaultdict(int),
"Add": defaultdict(int)

To avoid repetitive code, make the Log class do only one of the three things it currently does, and create three instances instead:

class Log(object):
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
        self.data = {}

    def add_item(self, key, status, item_name, score):
        key = '%s %i' % (self.name, key)
        if key not in self.data:
            self.data[key] = {"Comp": defaultdict(int),
                         "Miss": defaultdict(int),
                         "Post": defaultdict(int),
                         "Add": defaultdict(int),
                         "Score": 0}

        self.data[key][status][item_name] += 1
        self.data[key]['Score'] = score

def update_views(log_file):
    daily_log = Log('Day')
    weekly_log = Log('Week')
    monthly_log = Log('Month')
    ...
