Determing Tomorrow's Day of the Week
Keywords: tomorrow day of the week
Question:
I'm trying to capture tomorrows 'Day of the Week' in a variable named runday. The code below worked fine until today. It displayed correctly until it was suppose to display a runday='FRIDAY'. At this point runday = ' '. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.; MY CODE: (problem will occur if this code ; is run today 9/16/1999) now=TimeYmdHms() julianday=TimeJulianDay(now) day= julianday mod 7 day= day + 2 ; plus 2 makes runday equal to ; tomorrows day of the week. runday=ItemExtract(day,"Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday"," ") pause(runday,runday)
Answer:
The problem was that after you used the MOD function to make sure you have a good day number between zero and 6, then you added 2 to it.Add 2 to it BEFORE the MOD operation...
You probably want...
; MY CODE: (problem will occur if this code ; is run today 9/16/1999) now=TimeYmdHms() julianday=TimeJulianDay(now) julianday= julianday + 2 ; plus 2 makes runday equal to ; tomorrows day of the week. day= julianday mod 7 runday=ItemExtract(day,"Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday"," ") pause(runday,runday)
