Problem

You are given an integer W and a string S where W is the number of days in the month and S is the first day of the month. You are required to find the frequencies of all the seven days(monday to sunday) in that month.

Explanation

Each day of the month will come at least 4 times in a month irrespective of the number of days in that month or the start day.

All 7 days coming 4 times each : 7*4=28

Number of Days left: W-28 (lets denote this by X)

Now we assign the frequency 5 to X days starting from S(The start day)

Rest of the days will be assigned the frequency 4

Alternate Explanation

We run a loop from 1 to W updating the count of days according to the day of start

       for(int i=1;i<=W;i++)
       {
            count[id]++;
            id++;
            if(id==7)
            {
               id=0;
            }
        }

where id is initialized according to the first day .

id=0 represents S=mon

id=1 represents S=tues
and so on…

count[0] represent frequency of monday

count$[$1] represent frequency of tuesday

and so on…

TO @jeioncs

i do not understand what real world implementation u are showing.
but look at calendar and see the month of november 2017
now add one more day i.e. 31st to november. Now calculate the number of occurance for each day.
And remember the starting day is monday here as written in problem statement.

the answer is correct.It doesn’t fail in the reality.
welcome to help.

adios.

[Reality]

on a linux system --> ncal -M -b -y 2017 or
alt text

There is no need to invent days like November 31

I hope this is better explained.

Thanks for your quick answer.

Bye

Thanks for the patience an answers!!!
