Find name of day by year, month and day [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can do something like this to get the names of the days of the week for different locales.

Here's the important part:

DateFormatSymbols dfs = new DateFormatSymbols(usersLocale);
String weekdays[] = dfs.getWeekdays();

That can be combined with this:

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
int day = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);

To get what you're looking for:

String nameOfDay = weekdays[day];
