Joda time - all mondays between two dates

LocalDate startDate = new LocalDate(2011, 11, 8);
LocalDate endDate = new LocalDate(2012, 5, 1);

LocalDate thisMonday = startDate.withDayOfWeek(DateTimeConstants.MONDAY);

if (startDate.isAfter(thisMonday)) {
    startDate = thisMonday.plusWeeks(1); // start on next monday
} else {
    startDate = thisMonday; // start on this monday
}

while (startDate.isBefore(endDate)) {
    System.out.println(startDate);
    startDate = startDate.plusWeeks(1);
}

I recently developed Lamma which is designed to solve this exact use case:

Dates.from(2011, 11, 8).to(2011, 12, 30).byWeek().on(DayOfWeek.MONDAY).build();

and you will get a List<Date> of:

Date(2011,11,14)
Date(2011,11,21)
Date(2011,11,28)
Date(2011,12,5)
Date(2011,12,12)
Date(2011,12,19)
Date(2011,12,26)

This code takes to string dates and gives the number of sundays and also all the sunday's dates

import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;

public class FindAllSundays {


public static int getNumberofSundays(String d1, String d2) throws Exception { // object
                                                                                // in
                                                                                // Date

    Calendar c1 = Calendar.getInstance();
    c1.setTime(date1);
    Calendar c2 = Calendar.getInstance();
    c2.setTime(date2);
    int sundays = 0;
    while (c2.after(c1)) {
        // System.out.println(" came here ");
        //checks to see if the day1 ....so on next days are sundays if sunday goes inside to increment the counter
        if (c1.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) == Calendar.SUNDAY) {
            System.out.println(c1.getTime().toString() + " is a sunday ");
            sundays++;

        }
        c1.add(Calendar.DATE, 1);
    }

    System.out.println("number of sundays between 2 dates is " + sundays);

    return sundays;
}
// converts string to date 
public static Date getDate(String s) {
    DateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");

    return date;
}

public static void main(String[] arg) throws Exception {

}
