Re: the last saturday in the month

Turbofib, 
There is no need to use datestr, because you admitted you already have the
date number, in your example you gave 733546. 

So if you use d = 733546 then Marco Atzeri's solution is the correct one
which using d as your date variable, in a compact way would become
d = 733546;
a = localtime(d);
b = eomday(a.year+1900,a.mon+1);
Last_Saturday = (a.wday == 6) & (a.mon+7>b)
