Introduction: In C#, it's common to need to find the first occurrence of a weekday in a particular month. Whether you're working with date calculations, scheduling, or any other scenario, knowing how to find the first weekday efficiently can be quite useful. In this blog post, we'll explore three different methods to achieve this task, each with its own implementation approach and considerations. 1. Using a Loop: When you need a straightforward solution, iterating through the days of the month until you find the first occurrence of the desired weekday can be effective. Here's how you can implement it: public static DateTime FindFirstWeekdayOfMonth(int year, int month, DayOfWeek weekday) { DateTime date = new DateTime(year, month, 1); while (date.DayOfWeek != weekday) { date = date.AddDays(1); } return date; } 2. Using LINQ: For a more concise solution, you can leverage LINQ to generate a sequence o
