Generation

# Week Number Convention **ISO 8601 Standard:** Week 1 is the first week containing at least 4 days of the new year (equivalently, the week containing January 4th). Weeks run Monday-Sunday, and days before Week 1 belong to the last week of the previous year. **Why it matters:** This convention ensures every year has either 52 or 53 complete weeks with no partial weeks, making year-over-year business comparisons consistent. Without a standard, different systems (US vs EU, for example) assign different week numbers to the same dates, causing confusion in international scheduling, payroll, and financial reporting.
