How ISO Weekday works
Return ISO weekday number and English name for an ISO calendar date. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1
- ISO weekday
- The resulting iso weekday returned as an integer.
- Weekday name
- The resulting weekday name returned as a string.
Limitations and assumptions
- Calendar dates are not elapsed-time instants by themselves. Time zones, daylight-saving transitions, locale-specific week rules, inclusive endpoints, holidays, historical calendar reforms, and proleptic-calendar assumptions can change an apparently simple result.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Store instants with an explicit time zone when time of day matters, and document whether interval endpoints are inclusive. Supply a jurisdiction-specific holiday calendar for business-day decisions.
