How to set a Date Format on iPhone

I have implemented a calendar application for iPhone.

I am getting the current date using [NSDate date].

Now I want to display only "Tuesday". So how can I get this output. I don't know which format I have to use.

Thanks.

You need NSDateFormatter.

NSDateFormatter *dayFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dayFormat setDateFormat:@"EEEE"];
NSDate *now = [[NSDate alloc] init];
NSString *formattedDay = [dayFormat stringFromDate:now];

See the Unicode reference for all of the format options you can use.
