C# How can I check if today is the first Monday of the month?

Question

How can I check if today is the first Monday of the month?

The code below gives me the last day of the month, how should I modify this?

DateTime toda         


        

Answer 1

How about:

DateTime today = DateTime.Today;
if (today.DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Monday && today.Day <= 7)

Finding the first Monday of the month is slightly trickier. It's not clear whether or not you need that - let us know if you need that.

Note the use of DateTime.Today once - that way you don't end up with potential oddities where the date changes between the two parts of the condition being evaluated.
