Understanding Week Numbers

The current week number tells you which week of the year we are in. Most years have 52 weeks, though some years have 53 weeks depending on how the calendar aligns.

We use ISO 8601 standard week numbering, where weeks start on Monday and week 1 is defined as the week containing the first Thursday of the year.
