Is the start day of the week stored in NSLocale?

Question

I live in the Netherlands. We Dutch love to see Monday as the beginning of the week. I know that people in the US like to see Sunday as the beginning of the week. Stupid Americans;)

If I want to present a weekly review to my global users, can I get the preferred starting day of the week from NSLocale or is the settings panel the only way to go?

Cheers, EP.

Use the following code:

NSCalendar *calendar = [[NSLocale currentLocale] objectForKey:NSLocaleCalendar];
NSUInteger firstDay = [calendar firstWeekday];
