Help Needed with File Checker Korn Shell Script

I am attempting to write a korn shell script that does the following, but I am getting errors. I'm new to korn shell scripting and am not sure what I am doing wrong. Please help with example scripts. Thanks.

1) check for day of the week
2) if day of the week is Monday then check for the existence of three files
3) if all three files are not found then loop infinitely until all three are found
4) when found then execute a .sas program
5) else if the day if the week is not Monday then check for the existence of two files
6) if the two files are not found then loop infinitely until both files are found
7) when both files are found execute a .sas program

Here's what I have thus far:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
. ~/.profile

DAYOFWEEK=$(date +"%u")
echo DAYOFWEEK: $DAYOFWEEK

if ["$DAYOFWEEK" == 1];
then do
        if [-f /files/are/here/FILE1.txt
            -f /files/are/here/FILE2.txt
            -f /files/are/here/FILE3.txt]; then
sas /files/are/here/process.sas
sleep 10

else if ["$DAYOFWEEK" !==1];
then do
          if [-f /files/are/here/FILE2.txt
              -f /files/are/here/FILE3.txt]; then
sas /files/are/here/process.sas
sleep 10
done

gensprep(8)							 ICU 50.1.2 Manual						       gensprep(8)

NAME
gensprep - compile StringPrep data from files filtered by filterRFC3454.pl SYNOPSIS
gensprep [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -s, --sourcedir source ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] DESCRIPTION
gensprep reads filtered RFC 3454 files and compiles their information into a binary form. The resulting file, <name>.icu, can then be read directly by ICU, or used by pkgdata(8) for incorporation into a larger archive or library. The files read by gensprep are described in the FILES section. OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help Print help about usage and exit. -v, --verbose Display extra informative messages during execution. -c, --copyright Include a copyright notice into the binary data. -s, --sourcedir source Set the source directory to source. The default source directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. -d, --destdir destination Set the destination directory to destination. The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. ENVIRONMENT
ICU_DATA Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to /usr/share/icu/50.1.2/. Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure that it is present if ICU_DATA is set. FILES
The following files are read by gensprep and are looked for in the source /misc for rfc3454_*.txt files and in source /unidata for Normal- izationCorrections.txt. rfc3453_A_1.txt Contains the list of unassigned codepoints in Unicode version 3.2.0.... rfc3454_B_1.txt Contains the list of code points that are commonly mapped to nothing.... rfc3454_B_2.txt Contains the list of mappings for casefolding of code points when Normalization form NFKC is specified.... rfc3454_C_X.txt Contains the list of code points that are prohibited for IDNA. NormalizationCorrections.txt Contains the list of code points whose normalization has changed since Unicode Version 3.2.0. VERSION
