Your program should use Zeller's rule to output the day of the week any date occurred and for each weekday, output a proverb, fortune, piece of wisdom, etc....

Question

I have everything but just need the fortunes. For example, "Tuesday's child is full of grace.".

Please help me add them to my code.

Here is the code:

using System;

class dttimeex57

{

static void Main()

{

int yr, mn, dt;

Console.Write("\n\n Find the day for a given date :\n");

Console.Write("------------------------------------\n");

Console.Write(" Input the Day : ");

dt = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

Console.Write(" Input the Month : ");

mn = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

Console.Write(" Input the Year : ");

yr = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

DateTime d = new DateTime(yr, mn, dt);

Console.WriteLine(" The formatted Date is : {0}", d.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy"));

DateTime pp;

pp = DayOfWeek(d);

Console.WriteLine(" The day for the date is : {0}\n ", pp.DayOfWeek);

}

public static DateTime DayOfWeek(DateTime dt)

{

DateTime ss = new DateTime(dt.Year, dt.Month, dt.Day);

return ss;

}

}

Add this array to your code:

String [] strs = { "Fortune for Sunday",

"Fortune for Monday",

"Fortune for Tuesday",

"Fortune for Wednesday",

"Fortune for Thursday",

"Fortune for Friday",

"Fortune for Saturday"

};

Then output the fortune for that day:

Console.WriteLine(strs[pp.DayOfWeek]);
