Switch Case

Beginner Problems Language Basics Easy Go Ad-Free - ₹20/mo

Given the integer day denoting the day number, print on the screen which day of the week it is. Week starts from Monday and for values greater than 7 or less than 1, print Invalid.

Ensure only the 1^st letter of the answer is capitalised.

For printing use:-

for C++ : cout << variable_name;
for Java : System.out.print();
for Python : print()
for Javascript : console.log()

Examples:

Input: day = 3

Output: Wednesday

Input: day = 8

Output: Invalid

Input: day = 2

Constraints

0 <= day <= 50

Approach:

Receive Input: Capture the integer input day from the user.
If the day is less than 1 or greater than 7, print "Invalid".
Otherwise, use a switch statement or if-else ladder to print the corresponding day of the week based on the day value.

Note:

In Python, there is no direct switch-case construct like in other programming languages. Therefore, an if-else ladder is used for the code.

Solution:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

class Solution {
public:
    /* Function to determine the day of
    the week based on day number */
    void whichWeekDay(int day) {
        // Check if the day number is valid
        if (day < 1 || day > 7) {
            cout << "Invalid";
            return;
        }

        // Print the corresponding day of the week
        switch (day) {
            case 1: cout << "Monday"; break;
            case 2: cout << "Tuesday"; break;
            case 3: cout << "Wednesday"; break;
            case 4: cout << "Thursday"; break;
            case 5: cout << "Friday"; break;
            case 6: cout << "Saturday"; break;
            case 7: cout << "Sunday"; break;
        }
    }
};

int main() {
    // Creating an instance of Solution class
    Solution sol;
    
    int day;
    // Taking user input
    cout << "Enter the day number: ";
    cin >> day;
    
    /* Function call to determine the day of
    the week based on day number */
    sol.whichWeekDay(day);
    return 0;
}
import java.util.Scanner;

class Solution {
    /* Function to determine the day of

    public void whichWeekDay(int day) {
        // Check if the day number is valid
        if (day < 1 || day > 7) {
            System.out.print("Invalid");
            return;
        }

        // Print the corresponding day of the week
        switch (day) {
            case 1: System.out.print("Monday"); break;

            console.log("Invalid");
            return;

        // Print the corresponding day of the week

            case 5: console.log("Friday"); break;
            case 6: console.log("Saturday"); break;
            case 7: console.log("Sunday"); break;
        }
    }
}

// Creating an instance of Solution class
const sol = new Solution();

const readline = require('readline');

// Setting up readline interface for input
const rl = readline.createInterface({
    input: process.stdin,
    output: process.stdout
});

// Taking user input
rl.question("Enter the day number: ", function(day) {
    /* Function call to determine the day 
    of the week based on day number */
    sol.whichWeekDay(parseInt(day));
    rl.close();
});

Complexity Analysis:

Time Complexity: O(1), The operations of receiving input and printing output are executed once regardless of the size of the input.
Space Complexity: O(1), We only store a single integer in the day variable, and no additional space is used that grows with the input size.
