Consider the example of simulating the operations within an egg sorting factory over several weeks. Employees are rostered to work Monday to Friday however employees do not work on the weekend. The simluation must determine that it is not the weekend in order to simluate employees arriving for work. If Sunday is Day 1, Monday Day 2, Wednesday Day 3....etc (up to Saturday Day 7) the following Decide module could be used to determine if the factory should open for business.

NB: TNOW is an inbulit Arena variable that determines the current time of the simulation

NB: DayOfWeek(TNOW) is a user-defined variable that uses TNOW to determine the current day of the week in the simulation
