Below is the code which i have tried with, but its only displaying the first day of Feb month, but instead i want all the odd days of the month, so what changes i should do to get the desired output?

What I have tried:

$startdate=strtotime("2/1/2018");
            $enddate=strtotime("N", $startdate);
            while ($startdate < $enddate) 
            {
            echo date(" D d, M, Y ", $startdate) . "<br>";
            $startdate = strtotime("+2 day", $startdate);
            }

Setting the startdate to Feb 1st, setting the enddate +1 month and using the modulus function to check for odd days might do the trick

PHP

$startdate=strtotime("2/1/2018");
$enddate=strtotime("+1 months", $startdate);
while ($startdate < $enddate) 
{
    if (date("d", $startdate)%2==1)
    {
        $display = date(" D d, M, Y ", $startdate);
        var_dump($display);
    }
    $startdate = strtotime("+1 day", $startdate);
}

This outputs to

string(19) " Thu 01, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Sat 03, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Mon 05, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Wed 07, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Fri 09, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Sun 11, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Tue 13, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Thu 15, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Sat 17, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Mon 19, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Wed 21, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Fri 23, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Sun 25, Feb, 2018 "
string(19) " Tue 27, Feb, 2018 "
