Compare if date string is within text file
I need a unix function that given certain date i.e. in DDMMYYY format "05082016", it will return wether that date is within certain text file (with a list of dates, national holidays actually) or not.
My text file, holidays.txt has only the next content
10122016
05012016
31042016
17062016
when i call the function i need to write, isHoliday(DDMMYYY) it will return a 1 if the date is within the previous list or a 0 if its not.
how should i implement it?
