}

private int getPosOfWeekday(int startday, int nday)
{
    nday = weekDayValue(nday);
    return constructCircularArray(startday).indexOf(nday) + 1;
}

private ArrayList constructCircularArray(int weekday)
{
    ArrayList circularArray = new ArrayList();
    for(int i = 0; i < 7; i++)
    {
        circularArray.add(i, weekDayValue(weekday++));
    }
    return circularArray;
}

private int weekDayValue(int x)
{
    return ((x-1) % 7) + 1;
}
