Whats the best way to work out which week it is within a month?

Question

I want to work out which number week it is within a certain month.

For example

Days 1 - 7 = Week 1
Days 8 - 14 = Week 2
Days 15 - 21 = Week 3
Days 22 - 28 = Week 4

I know there are more days in some months than 28 but that doesn't matter i only want to work out 4 weeks worth.

Thanks in advance!

Do you want to consider something like Monday is the first day of the week, or should 1-7 strictly be considered the first week? — Akshaya Shanbhogue, Nov 07 '13 at 11:41

`ceil($day / 7)` should work: http://codepad.viper-7.com/s2LQxG — billyonecan, Nov 07 '13 at 11:50
input is date("d") and output should just be 1, 2, 3,4 i just tried the ceil($day / 7); seems to work nicely. — Exoon, Nov 07 '13 at 11:59

If you have a day in your hand; So basic but something like below:

if ($day > 0 && $day <8) {
$week = 1;
} else if ($day > 7 && $day <15) {
$week = 2;
} else if ($day > 14 && $day <22) {
$week = 3;
} else if ($day > 21 && $day <32) {
$week = 4;
}
