[Chris D. Bagwell]

Thats basically it. I need some code to find the day of week from the
month/day/year. Any language would work. Thanks

dayofweek(m, d, y) /* 1 <= m <= 12, y > 1752 (in the U.K.) */
{
static int t[] = { 0, 3, 2, 5, 0, 3, 5, 1, 4, 6, 2, 4 };

y -= m < 3;
return (y + y/4 - y/100 + y/400 + t[m-1] + d) % 7;
}

/*
dow(m,d,y){y-=m<3;return(y+y/4-y/100+y/400+"-bed=pen+mad."[m]+d)%7;}
This is not portable, but easy to learn by heart.

Of course, you could always use the standard library function mktime(
).
