To calculate the number of Fridays in a date column

using DAX WEEKDAY() Function 


=COUNTROWS(FILTER(tgif, WEEKDAY(tgif[Date], 2) = 5))

This formula counts the number of rows in a table that have a date with a weekday of 5 (Friday). In this formula, `tgif` is the name of the table, and `Date` is the name of the column that contains the dates.
