About Day of the Week Calculator

How week numbers work

This uses ISO 8601: weeks start on Monday, and week 1 is the week containing the year’s first Thursday. So January 1 might fall in week 52 or 53 of the previous year.

Day of year

January 1 is day 1, December 31 is day 365 (or 366 in leap years). Useful for project tracking, finance day-counts, and astronomy.

Range

JavaScript Date handles dates from around 271,000 BCE to 275,000 CE in theory — but accuracy declines at extremes. For dates near today, results are exact.
