Calculations with workdays

A workday (or weekday/business day) is Monday through Friday.

Saturday and Sunday are not counted as workdays/weekdays, and neither are public holidays (in your region).

workdays in 3 weeks                            | 15 workdays
10 March to 17 March in workdays               | 5 workdays
workdays from April 12 to June 15              | 45 workdays
$500/workday × 4 weeks                         | $10,000.00

Public holidays are taken into account in workday calculations

December 25 (Christmas day) is a public holiday in many countries, and this is taken into account when doing workday calculations:

December 24 + 2 workdays                            | December 30

Soulver automatically updates its list of public holidays for your country from the internet for the current and subsequent calendar years.

You can see the list of public holidays Soulver knows about in Calculator > Region Settings > Public Holidays in the Mac version.

Getting the day of the week on a particular day

day of the week on January 24, 1984            | Tuesday
weekday on March 9, 2024                       | Saturday

You can also control-click on a date answer to see what day of the week it was (or will be):
