Hi Folks, 

Please help me to solve this--

 I have a column of dates:

Date 1               today's date        Output 

2018-10-10       2019-05-03          previous week
2019-04-29       2019-05-03          this week
2019-04-28       2019-05-03           last week

2019-05-06       2019-05-03            next week

2019-05-09        2019-05-03            next week

 

I have only Date 1 as my input and i need to categorize it into 4 categories  which is previous week , this week, last week , next week.

this week starts from ... monday to sunday ie- from 29-05-2019 to 05-05-2019

next week starts from 6/may/2019 to 12/may /2019

last week starts from 22/april/2019 to 28/april/2019

rest all can be categorized as previous week.

 

Please help me with it.
