Hi,

You could use the DateTime.DayOfYear property.

Why without DateTime? Even if you don't have it, I think it's easier to create one than do it yourself.

But if you want to do it yourself, you need an array of days for each month of the year, which you could sum up to previous month plus days of current month. And don't forget to add an extra day if it's a leap year and month > 2.
