$secondSaturday = new DateTimeImmutable('second saturday of September 2026');
$fourthSaturday = new DateTimeImmutable('fourth saturday of September 2026');

echo $secondSaturday->format('Y-m-d') . "<br>";
echo $fourthSaturday->format('Y-m-d');

$year=date('Y');  // Change the value to use different Year
$month=date('m'); // Change the value to use different month
//$month=9;
$firstday = new  DateTime("$year-$month-1 0:0:0");
$first_w=$firstday->format('w'); // weekday of firstday 
$saturday1=new DateTime;
$saturday1->setDate($year,$month,14-$first_w);
echo "2nd Saturday for the Month:
	$month of Year:$year :".$saturday1->format('d-m-Y');

$saturday2=new DateTime;
$saturday2->setDate($year,$month,28-$first_w);
echo "4th Saturday for the Month:
	$month of Year:$year :".$saturday2->format('d-m-Y');

$wednesday3=new DateTime;
$wednesday3->setDate($year,$month,18-$first_w);
echo "3rd wednesday for the Month:
		$month of Year:$year :".$wednesday3->format('d-m-Y');

my_number=day_number + (Week_number-1)*7

my_number=4 + (3-1)*7;
$wednesday3->setDate($year,$month,my_number-$first_w);
