In C 20, the following code will output the number (0-6) for the weekday of the input date:
#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
int
main()
{
using namespace std;
using namespace std::chrono;
year_month_day dmy;
cin >> parse("%d %m %Y", dmy);
cout << format("%w", weekday{dmy}) << '\n';
}
How can I get that number to use in code as a numeric value so I could use it in a calculation? This has to be simple but I can't figure it out.
int total_score = weekday{dmy} * 10;
As a side note, I am really using the date (http://howardhinnant.github.io/date/date.html) library created by Howard Hinnant in C 17 but I believe the same question applies to both.

You can use std::chrono::weekday::c_encoding
to retrieve the stored value.
