hi, wanna find whether a day is week day or not?? i have tried tht here. , date=date.today [0,6].include?(date.wday) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ require 'date' class Date def weekend? self.wday == 0 || self.wday == 6 end end d1 = "9 December 2008" d2 = "13 December 2008" p Date.parse(d1).weekend? # false p Date.parse(d2).weekend? # true ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have used the code for calculation of weekdays between 2 dates., require 'date' d1 = Date.new( 2008, 11, 1 ) d2 = Date.new( 2008, 12, 31 ) WEEKDAY_NUMBERS = [1,2,3,4,5] weekdays = (d1..d2).select{ |d| WEEKDAY_NUMBERS.include?( d.wday ) } p weekdays.length ----------------------------------------------------
