Day of Week0–6

•Five fields in order: minute (0–59), hour (0–23), day of month (1–31), month (1–12), day of week (0–6, where 0 = Sunday).
•Use * for any value, */n for every n units (e.g. */15 = every 15 min), n-m for a range, and n,m for specific values.
•When both day-of-month and day-of-week are specified (not *), the job runs when either condition is met.
•Common mistake: month 13 is invalid (use 1–12), weekday 7 is non-standard (use 0 for Sunday), and */0 causes a divide-by-zero error.
