Calculating the number of Saturdays within a time range Topic is solved

[PuzzledGreatly]

Suppose I want to look 26 days from today. How can I calculate how many Saturdays are within that 26 day time period? I tried the following but it didn't work:

Code: Select all

d := A_Now
loop, 26
{
	EnvAdd, d, A_index, days
	formattime, n, d, dddd
	
	msgbox, 4096, %finC%, % d A_tab n
}

I expected to see n change to show the day of the week advancing but it didn't. I don't really get EnvAdd and formattime.

Code: Select all

d := A_Now
loop, 26
{
	d += 1, Days
	FormatTime, DayOfWeek, %d%, WDay
	if (DayOfWeek = 7)
		msgbox % d "`n" DayOfWeek
}

Thanks Datapoint, your solution works

try:

Code: Select all

period := 26
msgbox % 1 + floor((period-(7-A_WDay)) / 7)

Thanks, flyingDman, I've just discovered that the solution you proposed works better for what I am doing when the day is an actual Saturday.
