How can I calculate the number of wednesday exists in a date range?

[ananyaghosh]

!Hi,

I have created a date filed and assign the value to a variable vDate and I have a date range also and assign the value to a variable vRANGE. Now if the use select vDate as 24/1/2018 and range as 9, the I have to calculate the number of Wednesday which is actually the creation date in that range.

SO if vDate is 24/1/2018 and vRange is 9, the the date range is 15/1/2018 To 24/1/2018 and I need to calculate how many weekday means Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thrusday, Friday and Saturday is in between in that date range?

I have used the below set analysis for this purpose:

count({$<CREATION_DATE={">$(=(Date(Date#('$(vDATE)','M/DD/YYYY')-if('$(vRANGE)'='0','1','$(vRANGE)'))))<=$(vDATE)"}>}weekday(CREATION_DATE))

but it gives me nothing.

so any idea will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sandip Ghosh

Hi,

use this set analysis part:

your_date_field={"=weekday(your_date_field)=2"}

I can't understand your point. Please clarify it.

[YoussefBelloum]

on the title of your thread it is said that you want to: calculate the number of Wednesday that exist on range date.

my suggestion is to add this to you expression:

your_date_field={"=weekday(your_date_field)=2"} ==> to calculate the number of Wednesdays on your Date range.

If want to know how many times the weekday of vDate occurs in a preceding period of vRange days and including vDate itself, then that number can be calculated simply as:

=floor(vRange/7)+1

e.g. vDate=24/1/2018 and vRange=9 means that between 15/1/2018 and 24/1/2018 there are floor(9/7)+1 = 2 Wednesdays.

BTW this works in both directions.

Try this Expression

=count({1<CalendarWeek={'Wed'},CalendarDate={">=$(=Date#('01-01-2000','DD/MM/YYYY'))<=$(=Date#('31/01/2000','DD-MM-YYYY'))"}>}CalendarDate).

Hi,

I am using the below set expression:

=count({$<Week_Day={'Wed'},

CREATION_DATE={">$(=(Date(Date#('$(vDATE)','M/DD/YYYY')-if('$(vRANGE)'='0','1','$(vRANGE)'))))<=$(=Date#('$(vDATE)','M/DD/YYYY'))"}>}CREATION_DATE)

where I have to count the the number of Wednesday in a specific date range and vDATE is the variable name where I have put the date value and vRANGE is the date range which is actually is a numeric number.

But this is not working for me. Please help me in this case.

Try this,

=count({<Week_day={'Wed'}, [Last Login Time]={">=$(=date($(vMinLastlogin)))<=$(=date($(vMaxLastlogin)))"}>}DISTINCT [Last Login Time])

Change Your variables..

Hope this works...!
