List files created on Sundays

by

How do I list/find all the files created on Sundays or Mondays?

How do I use the date parameter to display them?

Something like : 

ls -f date + %a

or 

find -type f | date +%A

or

find -type f -mtime -6

Answer

Something like this?

find -type f -printf '%Ta\t%p\n' | egrep "^(Sun|Mon)" | cut -f 2-

Note that this uses the file’s last modification time, not creation time (which, as far as I know, isn’t kept anywhere)
