minus-square@mrspazlink26•5 months agoI wrote a program to figure out what day of the week this landed on (assuming it is in fact October 2nd, 151441). It’s a Saturday. Real downer on the start of the weekend.
minus-squareEpheralinkfedilink6•5 months agoYep, my immediate thought was, how the hell would you know it works?
minus-square@Bgugilink3•5 months agoBro probably to account for leap Thursday’s. We have one every ~28k years to keep in alignment with the true solar week.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•5 months agoTook me longer than it should have to realise this was a joke.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•5 months agoThat program better be using an existing date library, because otherwise it’s most definitely wrong.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•edit-25 months agopublic string GetDayOfWeek(DateTime date) => "saturday"; I also calculated it, his result checks out.
minus-square@al4slink4•5 months agoDon’t be ridiculous, that would never pass QA. But this one will. Joy for years to come: public string GetDayOfWeek(DateTime date) { return ((date - new DateTime(1970, 1, 1)).Milliseconds / 86400000) % 7 switch { 0 => "Thursday", 1 => "Friday", 2 => "Saturday", 3 => "Sunday", 4 => "Monday" }; }
