How to get first day of a given week number in Java

Question

Let me explain myself. By knowing the week number and the year of a date:

Date curr = new Date();
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime(curr);
i         


        

Answer 1

I haven't done much Date stuff in java but a solution might be:

cal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR) - cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK));

Logic:

Get the day of the week and substract it from the current date (might need -1, depending on wether you need monday to be first day of the week or sunday)
