for the past few hours I've been trying to figure out how to write a programme in C to calculate the end date based on the start date and number of days. (I haven't found the forum for this exact problem, yet).
So let's say you input 27/1/2021 as the starting date and then 380 days. The programme should now calculate and show you the end date 11/2/2022.
I don't know how to move forward, the help would be appreciated.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int day, month, year, numberDays;
int leapYear(int year) {
return (year % 4 == 0 && (year % 100 != 0 || year % 400 == 0));
}
int monthYear[12] = {31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31};
int main(void) {
printf("Enter starting date: ");
scanf("%d %d %d", &day, &month, &year);
printf("Enter number of days: ");
scanf("%d", &numberDays);
leapYear(year);
int wholeYears, rest;
if (leapYear(year)) {
wholeYears = numberDays / 366;
rest = numberDays % 366;
}
else {
wholeYears = numberDays / 365;
rest = numberDays % 365;
}
int resultYears = year + wholeYears;
int midDays = day + rest;
int resultMonths;
return 0;
}
I can't move any further. I'd need help.
So let's say you input 27/1/2021 as the starting date and then 380 days. The programme should now calculate and show you the end date 11/2/2022.
An easy approach is to use mktime() to bring a date into its standard range.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int main(void) {
struct tm start = {.tm_year = 2021 - 1900, .tm_mon = 1 - 1, .tm_mday = 27,
.tm_hour = 12}; // Midday to avoid DST issues.
start.tm_mday += 380;
printf("%d/%d/%d\n", start.tm_mday, start.tm_mon + 1, start.tm_year + 1900);
time_t t = mktime(&start);
printf("%d/%d/%d %s\n", start.tm_mday, start.tm_mon + 1, start.tm_year + 1900,
t == -1 ? "failed" : "OK");
}
Output
407/1/2021
11/2/2022 OK
Otherwise with discrete code, one is effectively re-writing the year/month/day portion of mktime().
I don't know how to move forward, the help would be appreciated.
Add the 380 to d of y, m, d. Maybe add some value to m in other cases. Then perform basic range reductions. There are 12 months to every year. Month range [1...12]. There are 365*400 + 97 days every 400 years. Day of the month is at least 1.
Last step is to handle a day outside the month range.
A simply, though inefficient, approach: test if the data is more than the days in that month. If so subtract the days in that month and advance to the next month.
I left out some code details as OP's goal is some ideas to move forward.

I have a little problem with my code. I need to check if user's given date is valid or not. I want to check it using 2 rules:
1. Date is valid date and found in a calendar (for example 29.2.2015 is invalid because there's only 28 days in February 2015) 2. Day and month can only be max 2 numbers (for example day 10 and 02 are valid but 010 and 002 are not). All help is appreciated!
This is my code this far:
void dateValidator(const char *date1) {
struct tm date = {0};
int day1;
int month1;
int year1;
int vday;
int vmonth;
int vyear;
sscanf(date1, "%3d.%3d.%d",&day1,&month1,&year1);
/**How do I check that if sscanf reads more than 2 characters on month and day, date is
invalid?**/
date.tm_year = year1 - 1900;
date.tm_mon = month1 - 1;
date.tm_mday = day1;
date.tm_isdst = -1;
vday = date.tm_mday;
vmonth = date.tm_mon;
vyear = date.tm_year;
mktime(&pvm);
if ((vday != date.tm_mday) || (vmonth != date.tm_mon) || (vyear != date.tm_year)) {
/**This doesnt seem to work**/
printf("Invalid date");
}
}
I have deleted my previous answer and posting another one. Actually your code is fine, You just have to send the correct parameter to mktime and to check its return value. I.e. change:
mktime(&pvm);
if ((vday != date.tm_mday) || (vmonth != date.tm_mon) || (vyear != date.tm_year)) {
/**This doesnt seem to work**/
printf("Invalid date");
}
to something like:
r = mktime(&date);
if (r == -1 || (vday != date.tm_mday) || (vmonth != date.tm_mon) || (vyear != date.tm_year)) {
printf("Invalid date");
}
and declare the variable r as time_t r;.
int IsValidDate(int year, int month, int day)
{
unsigned int leap;
unsigned char mon_day[] = { 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31 };
/* check the rang of the year */
if ((year < 1) || (year >= 3200))
{
return 0;
}
if ((month < 1) || (month > 12))
{
return 0;
}
/* if it's leep year */
if (((year % 4 == 0) && (year % 100 != 0)) || (year % 400 == 0))
{
leap = 1;
}
else
{
leap = 0;
}
mon_day[1] += leap;
if ((day > mon_day[month - 1]) || (day < 1))
{
return 0;
}
return 1;
}
For ruler 1, I have wrote this code for check the date before.
And I hope this code can help you.
The ruler 2 can easily checked, you can check it by format the valid date and compare it with the input string.
How do I check that if sscanf reads more than 2 characters on month and day, date is invalid?
Day and month can only be max 2 numbers digits (for example day 10 and 02 are valid but 010 and 002 are not).
An easy check: Record the offset at the end of the scan and tests 1) that it is not the original 0 (scanning got that far) and 2) this is the end of the string so as to detect extra junk in data1[]. Change 3d to 2d.
int n = 0;
sscanf(date1, "%2d.%2d.%d %n",&day1,&month1,&year1, &n);
if (n > 0 && data1[n] == '\0') Success();
else Fail();
Pedantic code would check with "%[]" to disallow leading spaces and '+'.
int n = 0;
sscanf(date1, "%*2[0-9].%*2[0-9].%*4[0-9] %n", &n);
if (n == 0 || data1[n]) Fail();
else {
sscanf(date1, "%2d.%2d.%d",&day1,&month1,&year1);
...
How to check if date is valid using mktime?
#Marian posted a good solution which adds a test of the return value of mktime().
if (-1 == mktime(&data)) Fail();
if (vday != date.tm_mday) || (vmonth != date.tm_mon) || (vyear != date.tm_year) Fail();
The program is supposed to return what day of the week it is for the entered date. One of the dates that doesn't work is 01012000. Nothing is returned at all. But on some other leap years the first day of March can be calculated. Also sometimes seemingly random dates don't work. I'm not sure how to fix this. Also I'm supposed to write the part that calculates "daynumber" and then call on it later so I'm not sure if I'm doing that right.
Sorry for the beginner questions, this is my first ever C program.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
int main()
{
int day, month, year, lastday, dayname, daynumber, input, d;
//Determine the last day of user specified month
printf("Enter date: ddmmyyyy:\n");
scanf("%d", &input);
day = input/1000000;
month = (input/10000) % 100;
year = input % 10000;
if (month == 1 || month == 3 || month == 5 || month == 7 ||
month == 8 || month == 10 || month == 12)
lastday = 31;
else if (month == 4 || month == 6 || month == 9 || month == 11)
lastday = 30;
else if ((year%4 == 0 && year%100 !=0) || year%400 == 0)
lastday = 29;
else
lastday = 28;
//Verify the date
if (year < 0)
return 1;
if (month < 1 || month > 12)
return 2;
if (day < 1 || day > lastday)
return 3;
//Algorithm
{
int m, d, y, c, daynumber;
if (month > 3)
m = month - 2;
else
m = month + 10;
if (m == 11 || m == 12)
year = year - 1;
else
year = year;
d = day;
y = year % 100;
c = year / 100;
daynumber = (((13*m - 1)/5) + d + y + (y/4) + (c/4) - 2*c) % 7;
if (daynumber == 0)
printf("Sunday\n");
if (daynumber == 1)
printf("Monday\n");
if (daynumber == 2)
printf("Tuesday\n");
if (daynumber == 3)
printf("Wednesday\n");
if (daynumber == 4)
printf("Thursday\n");
if (daynumber == 5)
printf("Friday\n");
if (daynumber == 6)
printf("Saturday\n");
}
}
I can't see your bug, but there is no need to scan the whole number and divide, use:
scanf("%2d%2d%4d", &day, &month, &year);
Using Sakamoto's algorithm you can do the same in few lines:
#include <stdio.h>
static int wday(int d, int m, int y)
{
static int offset[] = {0, 3, 2, 5, 0, 3, 5, 1, 4, 6, 2, 4};
y -= m < 3;
return (y + y / 4 - y / 100 + y / 400 + offset[m - 1] + d) % 7;
}
int main(void)
{
const char *days[] = {"Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"};
int d, m, y;
printf("Enter date [ddmmyyyy]: ");
scanf("%2d%2d%4d", &d, &m, &y);
printf("%s\n", days[wday(d, m, y)]);
return 0;
}
This
(((13*m - 1)/5) + d + y + (y/4) + (c/4) - 2*c)
can probably be negative. The result of % 7 would then still be negative and nothing is printed.
Just add daynumber = (daynumber + 7) % 7; after the line
daynumber = (((13*m - 1)/5) + d + y + (y/4) + (c/4) - 2*c) % 7;
You are using:
printf("Enter date: ddmmyyyy:\n");
scanf("%d", &input);
Here you are storing the input as a int. If sizeof(int) is 2 byte, its range would be between -32,768 to 32,767 and your input would be out of the range. For this you should use long int.
I'm programming a microcontroller in C that has an internal RTC and automatically increments a day counter (0-65536). So, given the initial date adjusted by the user (DD/MM/YYYY), I need to keep the calendar updated based on that counter. That is, I need to know how to calculate the date after x days. Does anyone know an algorithm for that? Couldn't find anything all over the web.
Thanks in advance.

As #moooeeeep suggests in his answer to the same question,
For the sake of clarity and correctness, you should stick to the existing solutions.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int main()
{
/* initialize */
int y=1980, m=2, d=5;
struct tm t = { .tm_year=y-1900, /* The number of years since 1900 */
.tm_mon=m-1, /* month, range 0 to 11 */
.tm_mday=d };
/* modify */
t.tm_mday += 40;
mktime(&t);
/* show result */
printf("%s", asctime(&t)); /* prints: Sun Mar 16 00:00:00 1980 */
return 0;
}
Check this. Maybe it need some adjustments. Somewhat brute-force, but speed should be enough even for microcontroller.
#include <stdio.h>
static int days_in_month[] = { 0, 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31 };
int day, month, year;
unsigned short day_counter;
int is_leap(int y) {
return ((y % 4 == 0 && y % 100 != 0) || y % 400 == 0);
}
next_day()
{
day += 1; day_counter++;
if (day > days_in_month[month]) {
day = 1;
month += 1;
if (month > 12) {
month = 1;
year += 1;
if (is_leap(year)) {
days_in_month[2] = 29;
} else {
days_in_month[2] = 28;
}
}
}
}
set_date(int d, int m, int y)
{
m < 1 ? m = 1 : 0;
m > 12 ? m = 12 : 0;
d < 1 ? d = 1 : 0;
d > days_in_month[m] ? d = days_in_month[m] : 0;
if (is_leap(y)){
days_in_month[2] = 29;
} else {
days_in_month[2] = 28;
}
day = d;
month = m;
year = y;
}
skip_days(int x)
{
int i;
for (i=0;i<x;i++) next_day();
}
print_date()
{
printf ("day: %d month: %d year: %d\n", day, month, year);
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int i;
set_date(5, 2, 1980);
skip_days(10000);
day_counter = 0;
/* after this call next_day each day */
print_date();
return 0;
}
Is there a way to find out day of the week given date in just one line of C code?
For example
Given 19-05-2011(dd-mm-yyyy) gives me Thursday
As reported also by Wikipedia, in 1990 Michael Keith and Tom Craver published an expression to minimise the number of keystrokes needed to enter a self-contained function for converting a Gregorian date into a numerical day of the week.
The expression does preserve neither y nor d, and returns a zero-based index representing the day, starting with Sunday, i.e. if the day is Monday the expression returns 1.
A code example which uses the expression follows:
int d = 15 ; //Day 1-31
int m = 5 ; //Month 1-12`
int y = 2013 ; //Year 2013`
int weekday = (d += m < 3 ? y-- : y - 2, 23*m/9 + d + 4 + y/4- y/100 + y/400)%7;
The expression uses the comma operator, as discussed in this answer.
Enjoy! ;-)
A one-liner is unlikely, but the strptime function can be used to parse your date format and the struct tm argument can be queried for its tm_wday member on systems that modify those fields automatically (e.g. some glibc implementations).
int get_weekday(char * str) {
struct tm tm;
memset((void *) &tm, 0, sizeof(tm));
if (strptime(str, "%d-%m-%Y", &tm) != NULL) {
time_t t = mktime(&tm);
if (t >= 0) {
return localtime(&t)->tm_wday; // Sunday=0, Monday=1, etc.
}
}
return -1;
}
Or you could encode these rules to do some arithmetic in a really long single line:
1 Jan 1900 was a Monday.
Thirty days has September, April, June and November; all the rest have thirty-one, saving February alone, which has twenty-eight, rain or shine, and on leap years, twenty-nine.
A leap year occurs on any year evenly divisible by 4, but not on a century unless it is divisible by 400.
EDIT: note that this solution only works for dates after the UNIX epoch (1970-01-01T00:00:00Z).
Here's a C99 version based on wikipedia's article about Julian Day
#include <stdio.h>
const char *wd(int year, int month, int day) {
/* using C99 compound literals in a single line: notice the splicing */
return ((const char *[]) \
{"Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", \
"Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"})[ \
( \
day \
+ ((153 * (month + 12 * ((14 - month) / 12) - 3) + 2) / 5) \
+ (365 * (year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12))) \
+ ((year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12)) / 4) \
- ((year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12)) / 100) \
+ ((year + 4800 - ((14 - month) / 12)) / 400) \
- 32045 \
) % 7];
}
int main(void) {
printf("%d-%02d-%02d: %s\n", 2011, 5, 19, wd(2011, 5, 19));
printf("%d-%02d-%02d: %s\n", 2038, 1, 19, wd(2038, 1, 19));
return 0;
}
By removing the splicing and spaces from the return line in the wd() function, it can be compacted to a 286 character single line :)
This is my implementation. It's very short and includes error checking. If you want dates before 01-01-1900, you could easily change the anchor to the starting date of the Gregorian calendar.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argv, char** arv) {
int month[] = {31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31};
char* day[] = {"Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"};
int d, m, y, i;
printf("Fill in a date after 01-01-1900 as dd-mm-yyyy: ");
scanf("%d-%d-%d", &d, &m, &y);
// correction for leap year
if (y % 4 == 0 && (y % 100 != 0 || y % 400 == 0))
month[1] = 29;
if (y < 1900 || m < 1 || m > 12 || d < 1 || d > month[m - 1]) {
printf("This is an invalid date.\n");
return 1;
}
for (i = 1900; i < y; i++)
if (i % 4 == 0 && (i % 100 != 0 || i % 400 == 0))
d += 366;
else
d += 365;
for (i = 0; i < m - 1; i++)
d += month[i];
printf("This is a %s.\n", day[d % 7]);
return 0;
}

This is question 20.31 in the C FAQ list. It lists three answers, two of which are amenable to one-liners.

There's a further condensation of Sakamoto's method using an ASCII string instead of the t array: dow = (y + y/4 - y/100 + y/400 + "-bed=pen+mad."[m] + d) % 7;
The basic idea underlying all of these methods is the same: boil the date down to a monotonically-increasing sequence of day numbers (taking month lengths and leap years into account), then reduce that day number modulo 7.
I think you can find that in glib:

Here is a simple code that I created in c that should fix your problem :
#include <conio.h>
int main()

int y,n,oy,ly,td,a,month,mon_,d,days,down,up; // oy==ordinary year, td=total days, d=date
printf("Enter the year,month,date: ");
scanf("%d%d%d",&y,&month,&d);
n= y-1; //here we subtracted one year because we have to find on a particular day of that year, so we will not count whole year.
oy= n%4;
if(oy==0) // for leap year
{
mon_= month-1;
down= mon_/2; //down means months containing 30 days.
up= mon_-down; // up means months containing 31 days.
if(mon_>=2)
{
days=(up*31)+((down-1)*30)+29+d; // here in down case one month will be of feb so we subtracted 1 and after that seperately
td= (oy*365)+(ly*366)+days; // added 29 days as it is the if block of leap year case.
}
if(mon_==1)
{
days=(up*31)+d;
td= (oy*365)+(ly*366)+days;
}
if(mon_==0)
{
days= d;
td= (oy*365)+(ly*366)+days;
}
}
else

I wrote a small function to do this in C inspired by Conway's doomsday algorithm.
It was written with 8-bit microcontrollers in mind and the "year" argument is a year from 0 to 99 only (representing 2000 to 2099). I wrote it to compile down nice and small on avr-gcc. It uses no lookup table (I got the code smaller without).
// day of week, Thomas Rutter
// y should be a year 0 to 99 (meaning 2000 to 2099)
// m and d are 1-based (1-12, 1-31)
// returns 0 = sunday, ..., 6 = saturday
uint8_t dayofweek(uint8_t y, uint8_t m, uint8_t d)
{
uint8_t x = y + 24 - (m < 3);
x = x + (x >> 2) + d - m;
if (m & 1)
x += (m & 8) ? 4 : 3;
if (m < 3)
x += 3;
return x % 7;
}
In my own version, the mod operator at the bottom was replaced with my own optimised code as the platform I was using has no MUL or DIV and I wanted it 1 to 7 instead of 0 to 6.
This could be adapted to work with other centuries or specify the year in full - I just didn't need to do so for my own use.
