import datetime
def compare_month_day(dob: str, case_dob: str) -> bool:
    parse_template = "%Y-%m-%d"
    _dob = datetime.datetime.strftime(dob, parse_template)
    _case_dob = datetime.datetime.strftime(case_dob, parse_template)
    if _dob.day == _case_dob.month:
        return True
    
    return False

— Did I understand you correctly?

— I tried this but what is case_dob has masked year

— Case_dob could be like "****-04-27" - year masked. In this case compare month and day. If month and day are same - return True. Otherwise False.

— I am stuck here ?

— Try making 3 different if statements

— One for the year
One for the month
One for the day

— If it’s masked/true, move to the next one

— Otherwise just return false

— Okay I'll try

— Ok, if year is masker you can use split for string if structure not changes
