Date : Object in javascript

An object that represents a date and time. Internally the time is stored as the number of milliseconds since 01 January, 1970 UTC. Use new Date() to get a Date for the current time or Date.now() to get the current time in milliseconds since 01 January, 1970 UTC.

 Date() : String

Returns a string representation of the current date and time.

Example :  console.log(Date());

 new Date() : Date

Returns a new Date object that represents the current date and time.
Example:
var d = new Date();
console.log(d);

 new Date(year : Number, month : Number, [date = 1 : Number, [hours = 0 : Number, [minutes = 0 : Number, [seconds = 0 : Number, [milliseconds = 0 : Number]]]]]) : Date

Returns a new Date object that represents the specified date and time. month 0 is January, 1 is February, etc. date is the calendar day, starting with 1 and will be at most 31.
Example:
var d = new Date(2002, 5, 24, 18, 30);
console.log(d);

 new Date(millisecondsSince1970 : Number) : Date

Returns a new Date object that is the specified number of milliseconds from 01 January, 1970 UTC.
Example:
var d = new Date(365 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
console.log(d.toUTCString());

 new Date(string : String) : Date

Parses string and returns a new Date object representing the specified date and time. See also Date.parse(string).
Example:
var d = new Date('Fri, 01 Jan 1971 00:00:00 GMT');
console.log(d.getUTCFullYear());
