Day calculation against entered date

How to get the name of the day against any entered date? The responder entered the date 1/1/2024, and the day of this date will be calculated automatically

I assume by this you mean “Mon”, “Tue”, …?

Take a look at this: Calculating week-of-year for a date - Showcase - ODK Forum
Although the form is specifically intended to determine the week-of-year, it does calculate the day-of-week in the process…

Actually, looking back at the code (I originally wrote this some 5 years ago!) I suspect you just need

weekday = format-date(${date},"%a")

See format-date() for details.
