I connected to my office LAN a postgresql server with the latest linux

By means of "crontab" each working day at 3am the following "crono" script

I would like instead to "enumerate" the two files (starting from monday
= 1, till friday=5)
in order to keep a week backup, such as for instance: curve.1.tar.gz ,
curve.2.tar.gz,
.. curve.5. tar.gz and the same for etc
How can I obtain this result with crontab?
Here is my db backup script. It's for mysql, but the idea is the same.
