I was born on the 21st of September in the year of 1970. That was a Monday. Where I was born that weekday is called måndag.

  • Write a method that when passed a date as year/month/ day and returns the date's weekday name in the Dutch culture. The culture identifier to use is "nl-NL". Not "nl-BE".
  • You can assume the specified date is valid.
  • Looking at the tests and doing a switch statement or similar is considered cheating.
  • System.Globalization.CultureInfo should be used.
  • The method may be used to get the name of the Dutch weekday of other memorable days too, like in the examples below:

Examples
