What if you only counted weekdays?
In some cases, you might want to skip weekends and count only the weekdays. This could be useful if you know you have a deadline based on a certain number of business days. If you are trying to see what day falls on the exact date difference of 3977 weekdays before Nov 21, 2023, you can count up each day skipping Saturdays and Sundays.
Start your calculation with Nov 21, 2023, which falls on a Tuesday. Counting forward, the next day would be a Wednesday.
To get exactly three thousand nine hundred seventy seven weekdays before Nov 21, 2023, you actually need to count 5569 total days (including weekend days). That means that 3977 weekdays before Nov 21, 2023 would be August 22, 2008.
If you're counting business days, don't forget to adjust this date for any holidays.
