[Scilab-users] SEP: upgrading weekday()

[Samuel Gougeon]

Dear co-scilabers,

A bug report recently posted about the weekday() function invites me to 
propose to upgrade this simple function.

Presently, weekday() accepts only one poorly explicit numerical date format.

By the way, when it is requested, it is currently not possible to get 
the day name in en_US language as a standard. Only the locale version is 
returned.

A proposal to extend weekday() is attached. It is also available on the 
Scilab wiki:

Any comment and input is welcome.

Regards
Samuel Gougeon
