[Sharing] Get days occurrence each month


Hi Guys,

I just want a share a script which I have made.
The script is meant to return a date based on the day and occurrences.
So, for example this is the application of the script:
1. you want to get the date for first Friday of the current month
2. you want to know whether there is a 5th week Monday.

The first input is the day (0 - 6 where 0 is Sunday)
The second input is the occurence (1 - 5)

here goes my script:

PHP Code:
#!/bin/bash

# This script is used to find the date of certain day in certain week
# for example: 
# first Monday of the month
# second Wednessday of the month

# first day of the month
# for example 1st March 2012 is Thursday
# this will give result of 4
firstdom=$(date -"-$[`date +%d` -1] days" +%w)

#last date of the month
lastdom=$(date -"-$[`date +%d` -1] days + 1 month - 1 days" +%d)

# last date of first week
w1=$[7-$(date -"-$[`date +%d` -1] days" +%w)]

# d is the date parameter
# w is the occurrence parameter
d=$1
w
=$2

if [ $d -lt $firstdom ]; then
   r
=$(( (7-$firstdom)+(7*($w-1))+$d ))
   if [ $(( 
$r+)) -gt $lastdom ]; then 
      
exit 1;
   else 
      echo `
date -d "-$[ $(date +%d) -1] days + $r days" +%Y%m%d`
   
fi
fi

if [ $d -ge $firstdom ]; then
   r
=$(( ($d-$firstdom)+(7*($w-1)) ))
   if [ $(( 
$r+)) -gt $lastdom ]; then
      
exit 1
   
else
     echo `
date -d "-$[ $(date +%d) -1] days + $r days" +%Y%m%d`
   
fi 
fi 
let's say I named my script as wom.sh
Then this is how I use it

Show the date of the second Monday of current month
$./wom.sh 1 2
result: 20120409

please let me know your comments.

Thank you,
Adhika
