The date.getUTCMilliseconds() is an inbuilt function in JavaScript which is used to fetch the millisecond according to universal time from a given Date object.
Syntax:
DateObj.getUTCMilliseconds();
In the above syntax, DateObj is a valid Date object created using Date() conctructor from which we want to fetch millisecond accoding to universal time.
Parameter: This function does not takes any parameter. It is just used along with a Date Object from which we want to fetch millisecond according to universal time.
Return Values: It returns the millisecond for the given date object according to universal time. Milliseconds is an integer value ranging from 0 to 999.
Below program illustrate the getUTCMilliseconds() method:
// Here a date has been assigned according to universal // time while creating Date object var dateobj = new Date( 'October 15, 1996 05:35:32:77 GMT+11:00' ); // millisecond from above date object is // being extracted using getUTCMilliseconds(). var B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds(); // Printing millisecond according to universal time console.log(B); |
Output:
77
Errors and Exceptions:
- Code #1: The date of the month should must lie in between 1 to 31 because none of the month have date greater than 31 that is why it returns NaN i.e, not a number because date for the month does not exist. Millisecond will not be existed according to universal time if the date of the month does not exists.
// Here a date has been assigned according to universal
// time while creating Date object.
var
dateobj =
new
Date(
'October 33, 1996 05:35:32:77 GMT+11:00'
);
// millisecond from above date object is
// being extracted using getUTCMilliseconds().
var
B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
// Printing millisecond according to universal time.
console.log(B);
Output:
NaN
- Code #2: If millisecond is not given to the Date() constructor while creating a Date object, the getUTCMilliseconds() function returns zero (0) according to universal time.
// Here a date has been assigned according to universal
// time while creating Date object
var
dateobj =
new
Date(
'October 13, 1996 05:35:32 GMT+11:00'
);
// millisecond from above date object is
// being extracted using getUTCMilliseconds().
var
B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
// Printing millisecond according
// to universal time.
console.log(B);
Output:
0
- Code #3: If nothing as parameter is given to the Date() constructor while creating a Date object, the getUTCMilliseconds() function returns current millisecond according to universal time.
// creating Date object
var
dateobj =
new
Date();
// millisecond from above date object is
// being extracted using getUTCMilliseconds().
var
B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
// Printing current millisecond
// according to universal time.
console.log(B);
Output:
566
- Code #4: If millisecond outside the range [0,999] is given to the Date() constructor while creating a Date object, the getUTCMilliseconds() function return 0 as exception because milliseconds range is in between 0 to 999 and 1003 is out of this range.
// Here a date has been assigned according to universal
// time while creating Date object
var
dateobj =
new
Date(
'October 13, 1996 05:35:32:1003 GMT+11:00'
);
// millisecond from above date object is
// being extracted using getUTCMilliseconds().
var
B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
// Printing millisecond
// according to universal time.
console.log(B);
Output:
0
Application: It has many applications such as getting current millisecond. Below program shows one of the application of this function. It gives the current millisecond.
// creating Date object var dateobj = new Date(); // millisecond from above date object is // being extracted using getUTCMilliseconds(). var B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds(); // Printing current millisecond // according to universal time. console.log(B); |
Output:
566
