   Here an old batch which calculates the number of days since 1901   
   without using an IF statement:   
      
      
   @echo off   
   setlocal disabledelayedexpansion   
      
   :: extract the variables %y% %m% %d% from the %date% variable   
   :: (this depends on the local date format)   
   :: valid year range: 1901-2099   
      
   set /a y=2004   
   set /a m=3   
   set /a d=1   
      
   call :date2day   
   set /a w=%w%-1   
   call :day2date   
      
   echo %y% %m% %d%   
   goto :eof

   set /a w=(%w%+(%m%-1)*30+2*(!((%m%-7)^&16))-1+((65611044^>^>(2*%m%))^&3))
