Well, if current date falls on Friday, next two dates will always be Saturday and Sunday. Am I missing something here?

therefore i need to the system to determine if i entered friday and also the date range(eg. 4 days), then the system will prompt a message to tell me that i have 2 days off.

Solution 2

here is a sample code

C#

DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
            
            int range = 4;
            int offCount = 0;
            for (int i = 1; i <= range; i++)
            {
                if (dt.AddDays(i).DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Saturday || dt.AddDays(i).DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Sunday)
                    offCount++;
            }
