convert date variable to doy variable
Hello:

I have a script that requires the use of DOY (as a variable) instead of YY/MM/DD. I already obtained these parameters from downloaded files and stored them as variables (i.e. $day, $month, $year).

Is there any simple script that I could incorporate in mine to do this job?

Regards,

Antonio
