Try this command
You can include this in a shell script to get the month and year to pass to the below command.

cal 10 05 | grep -v ^$ | tail -1 | sed 's/^.* \([0-9]*\)$/\1/'

try this,

cal <month> <year> | sed '/^$/d' | tail -1 | awk '{printf $NF}'

not working

please check once again.

Why dont you use the datecalc.

It does exactly what you require.

Which solution is not working? Give the last two digits for year
