12 while ($dow != $target_dow) { # do the following until $dow +is what we want 13 # Back up one day 14 $start -= $seconds_per_day; # remove a days worth of secon +ds from our epoch time 15 if (--$dow < 0) { # remove one from our $dow cou +nter 16 $dow += 7; # if we ended up with -1 as da +y of week, wrap it back to 6 (-1 + 7) 17 } # end if 18 } # end while loop, now our $dow + matches our target
