Discussion

For example, for English in the Gregorian calendar, returns ["Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat"].

Note

Stand-alone properties are for use in places like calendar headers. Non-stand-alone properties are for use in context (for example, “Saturday, November 12th”).

Note

By default, Calendars have no locale set. If you wish to receive a localized answer, be sure to set the locale property first - most likely to Locale.autoupdatingCurrent.
