The Below Code is not appropiate if some one explain

Day = 60 * 60 * 24

Fromat = "http://www.google.com" # or any Image Files

t = Time.local(2005, 2, 5)

MWF = [1,3,5]

until t == Time.local(2007, 7, 9)
  if MWF.include? t.wday
    `wget #{t.strftime(Fromat)}`
    sleep 3
  end

  t += Day
end

You'll get into trouble with daylight savings time assuming that 1 day =
86400 seconds:

    t = Time.local(2009,11,1) # => 2009-11-01 00:00:00 -0500
    day = 60*60*24 # => 86400
    t + day # => 2009-11-01 23:00:00 -0500

To increment by 1 day, use the ActiveSupport gem:

    require 'active_support'
    t + 1.day # => 2009-11-02 00:00:00 -0500
