Hello, I'm a complete beginner in Linux, and I would like to extract just the day from the date command...
Here is the code I tried to test but got no result. Just for your information, I'm on Ubuntu...
#!/bin/bash
CURRENTDATE=`cut -c1 date`
echo $CURRENTDATE
Thank you very much for your help...

Hello,
Try with the command: date | cut -c 1-3 (adjusting the 1-3 according to the output of the date command).
You can also do it with the command: date | awk -F" " '{print $1}' (adjusting 1 according to the output of date).
Have a nice day.

There are 3 types of people in the world. Those who know how to count and those who don’t.
And if you need nothing, just call me!!
