+# This is a case for the datetime module:
+# - First we calculate the day of week for the 1st of the given month by
+#   creating a DateTime object
+# - Then we calculate the first day of the month that matches our target
+#   day of week
+# - From that, we calculate the weekday of month's date by adding another
+#   7 for each week we're out from the first week
+# - If we went past the end of the month, we return 0, otherwise the
+#   calculated date
