Hi all!

 

I was just working on Weekly Challenge 41 when I was inspired by this particular problem. 

 

Can we write a formula where we input two dates, and it will output the number of weekend days in between them? (inclusive of both dates)

 

For example: given these two dates -  Wednesday 28th December 2022 & Saturday 14th January 2023. We can see, by manually counting, that there are 5 weekend days between them.

 

I'd love to see some different takes on tackling this question! 

 

Thanks, 

BS

 

 

 

All the best,
BS
