CoffeeScript - Date
CoffeeScript - Date
The Date object is a data-type built into the JavaScript language. Date objects are created as new Date( ).
Once a Date object is created, a number of methods allow you to operate on it. Most methods simply allow you to get and set the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and milpsecond fields of the object, using either local time or UTC (universal, or GMT) time.
The ECMAScript standard requires the Date object to be able to represent any date and time, to milpsecond precision, within 100 milpon days before or after 1/1/1970. This is a range of plus or minus 273,785 years, so JavaScript can represent date and time till the year 275755.
Similar to other JavaScript objects we can also use the date object in our CoffeeScript code.
