Getting first day of the week in MySql using Week No
This is an accurate way of getting the first day of the week and the last day of the week based on the current date:
adddate(curdate(), INTERVAL 1-DAYOFWEEK(curdate()) DAY) WeekStart,
adddate(curdate(), INTERVAL 7-DAYOFWEEK(curdate()) DAY) WeekEnd
You can use:
SELECT STR_TO_DATE('201003 Monday', '%X%V %W');
This would give you the Monday date of week 3 of 2010, which would be 2010-01-18.
Another example:
SELECT STR_TO_DATE('201052 Sunday', '%X%V %W');
Would give you the Sunday date of week 52 of 2010, which would be 2010-12-26.
And finally, using your original example:
SELECT STR_TO_DATE('201029 Sunday', '%X%V %W');
This gives 2010-07-18.
