Function in REXX

Postby opelosi » Wed Sep 10, 2008 7:25 am

Hi folks...

I looking for a function in REXX that would return what day Christmas day falls on in any given year. The input to the exec is year.

Does anyone have any clue how to do that??

Cheers,

Orlando

Hello opelosi and welcome to the forums,

Try here:

You need to "build" the complete date from the year entered. Fortuntely, Christmas is always Dec 25 ;)
Hope this helps,
d.sch.
