How to find second and fourth Monday of the month?
Hi,

I have came across the scenario where, we have to run the script on second and fourth Monday of each month.

I have tried to search man page of date and also forum for it but, could not get any answer to this.

Can you please advise how can we get second and fourth Monday of the month?

Also, While searching for above problem, I have came across the thread Can we get every tuesday or monday's date for the current week which has following code to find Monday of the current week.

Code:
cal | awk -v d="$(date +"%m %d %y")" 'BEGIN{split(d,a)} $0 ~ int(a[2]) {print a[1] $2 a[3]}'

I am unable to understand that code and that thread is closed. Can someone please explain this code?

Thanks in advance for your help.

		       |		|should replace the radix character

       If the locale's values for p_cs_precedes and n_cs_precedes do not match, the value of nl_langinfo(CRNCYSTR) is unspecified.

       The <langinfo.h> header declares the following as a function:

	 char *nl_langinfo(nl_item);

       Inclusion of <langinfo.h> header may also make visible all symbols from <nl_types.h>.

USAGE

       Wherever possible, users are advised to use functions compatible with those in the ISO C standard to access items of langinfo data. In par-
       ticular, the strftime(3C) function should be used to access date and time information defined in category LC_TIME. The localeconv(3C) func-
       tion should be used to access information corresponding to RADIXCHAR, THOUSEP, and CRNCYSTR.
