string-concatenation of s and m.
The output of toFixed may be more precise than toString for some values because toString only prints enough significant digits to distinguish the number from adjacent number values. For example,
(1000000000000000128).toString() returns
(1000000000000000128).toFixed(0) returns

20.4 Date Objects
20.4.1 Overview of Date Objects and Definitions of Abstract Operations
The following functions are
20.4.1.1 Time Values and Time Range
Time measurement in ECMAScript is analogous to time measurement in POSIX, in particular sharing definition in terms of the proleptic Gregorian calendar, an epoch of midnight at the beginning of 01 January, 1970 UTC, and an accounting of every day as comprising exactly 86,400 seconds (each of which is 1000 milliseconds long).
An ECMAScript time value is a Number, either a finite
Time values do not account for UTC leap seconds—there are no time values representing instants within positive leap seconds, and there are time values representing instants removed from the UTC timeline by negative leap seconds. However, the definition of time values nonetheless yields piecewise alignment with UTC, with discontinuities only at leap second boundaries and zero difference outside of leap seconds.
A Number can exactly represent all integers from -9,007,199,254,740,992 to 9,007,199,254,740,992 (
The exact moment of midnight at the beginning of 01 January, 1970 UTC is represented by the time value
The 400 year cycle of the proleptic Gregorian calendar contains 97 leap years. This yields an average of 365.2425 days per year, which is 31,556,952,000 milliseconds. Therefore, the maximum range a Number could represent exactly with millisecond precision is approximately -285,426 to 285,426 years relative to 1970. The smaller range supported by a time value as specified in this section is approximately -273,790 to 273,790 years relative to 1970.
20.4.1.2 Day Number and Time within Day
A given
where the number of milliseconds per day is
The remainder is called the time within the day:
20.4.1.3 Year Number
ECMAScript uses a proleptic Gregorian calendar to map a day number to a year number and to determine the month and date within that year. In this calendar, leap years are precisely those which are (divisible by 4) and ((not divisible by 100) or (divisible by 400)). The number of days in year number y is therefore defined by
All non-leap years have 365 days with the usual number of days per month and leap years have an extra day in February. The day number of the first day of year y is given by:
The
A
The leap-year function is 1 for a time within a leap year and otherwise is zero:
20.4.1.4 Month Number
Months are identified by an
where
A month value of 0 specifies January; 1 specifies February; 2 specifies March; 3 specifies April; 4 specifies May; 5 specifies June; 6 specifies July; 7 specifies August; 8 specifies September; 9 specifies October; 10 specifies November; and 11 specifies December. Note that
20.4.1.5 Date Number
A date number is identified by an
20.4.1.6 Week Day
The weekday for a particular
A weekday value of 0 specifies Sunday; 1 specifies Monday; 2 specifies Tuesday; 3 specifies Wednesday; 4 specifies Thursday; 5 specifies Friday; and 6 specifies Saturday. Note that
20.4.1.7 LocalTZA ( t, isUTC )
LocalTZA( t, isUTC ) is an implementation-defined algorithm that returns the local time zone adjustment, or offset, in milliseconds. The local political rules for standard time and daylight saving time in effect at t should be used to determine the result in the way specified in this section.
When isUTC is true,
When isUTC is false,
Input t is nominally a
When
If an implementation does not support a conversion described above or if political rules for time t are not available within the implementation, the result must be 0.
It is recommended that implementations use the time zone information of the IANA Time Zone Database https://www.iana.org/time-zones/.
1:30 AM on November 5, 2017 in America/New_York is repeated twice (fall backward), but it must be interpreted as 1:30 AM UTC-04 instead of 1:30 AM UTC-05. LocalTZA(
2:30 AM on March 12, 2017 in America/New_York does not exist, but it must be interpreted as 2:30 AM UTC-05 (equivalent to 3:30 AM UTC-04). LocalTZA(
Local time zone offset values may be positive or negative.
20.4.1.8 LocalTime ( t )
The abstract operation LocalTime with argument t converts t from UTC to local time by performing the following steps:
- Return t +
LocalTZA (t,true ).
Two different input time values
20.4.1.9 UTC ( t )
20.4.1.10 Hours, Minutes, Second, and Milliseconds
The following
where
20.4.1.11 MakeTime ( hour, min, sec, ms )
The abstract operation MakeTime calculates a number of milliseconds from its four arguments, which must be ECMAScript Number values. This operator functions as follows:
- If hour is not finite or min is not finite or sec is not finite or ms is not finite, return
NaN . - Let h be !
ToInteger (hour). - Let m be !
ToInteger (min). - Let s be !
ToInteger (sec). - Let milli be !
ToInteger (ms). - Let t be h
*msPerHour +m*msPerMinute +s*msPerSecond +milli, performing the arithmetic according toIEEE 754-2019 rules (that is, as if using the ECMAScript operators*and+). - Return t.
20.4.1.12 MakeDay ( year, month, date )
The abstract operation MakeDay calculates a number of days from its three arguments, which must be ECMAScript Number values. This operator functions as follows:
- If year is not finite or month is not finite or date is not finite, return
NaN . - Let y be !
ToInteger (year). - Let m be !
ToInteger (month). - Let dt be !
ToInteger (date). - Let ym be y +
floor (m / 12). - Let mn be m
modulo 12. - Find a value t such that
YearFromTime (t) is ym andMonthFromTime (t) is mn and DateFromTime(t) is 1; but if this is not possible (because some argument is out of range), returnNaN . - Return
Day (t) + dt - 1.
20.4.1.13 MakeDate ( day, time )
The abstract operation MakeDate calculates a number of milliseconds from its two arguments, which must be ECMAScript Number values. This operator functions as follows:
- If day is not finite or time is not finite, return
NaN . - Return day ×
msPerDay + time.
20.4.1.14 TimeClip ( time )
The abstract operation TimeClip calculates a number of milliseconds from its argument, which must be an ECMAScript
The point of step 4 is that an implementation is permitted a choice of internal representations of time values, for example as a 64-bit signed
20.4.1.15 Date Time String Format
ECMAScript defines a string interchange format for date-times based upon a simplification of the ISO 8601 calendar date extended format. The format is as follows: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ
Where the elements are as follows:
YYYY
|
is the year in the proleptic Gregorian calendar as four decimal digits from 0000 to 9999, or as an |
-
|
|
MM
|
is the month of the year as two decimal digits from 01 (January) to 12 (December). |
DD
|
is the day of the month as two decimal digits from 01 to 31. |
T
|
|
HH
|
is the number of complete hours that have passed since midnight as two decimal digits from 00 to 24. |
:
|
|
mm
|
is the number of complete minutes since the start of the hour as two decimal digits from 00 to 59. |
ss
|
is the number of complete seconds since the start of the minute as two decimal digits from 00 to 59. |
.
|
|
sss
|
is the number of complete milliseconds since the start of the second as three decimal digits. |
Z
|
is the UTC offset representation specified as HH:mm (indicating local time ahead of or behind UTC, respectively)
|
This format includes date-only forms:
YYYY
YYYY-MM
YYYY-MM-DD
It also includes “date-time” forms that consist of one of the above date-only forms immediately followed by one of the following time forms with an optional UTC offset representation appended:
THH:mm
THH:mm:ss
THH:mm:ss.sss
A string containing out-of-bounds or nonconforming elements is not a valid instance of this format.
As every day both starts and ends with midnight, the two notations 00:00 and 24:00 are available to distinguish the two midnights that can be associated with one date. This means that the following two notations refer to exactly the same point in time: 1995-02-04T24:00 and 1995-02-05T00:00. This interpretation of the latter form as "end of a calendar day" is consistent with ISO 8601, even though that specification reserves it for describing time intervals and does not permit it within representations of single points in time.
There exists no international standard that specifies abbreviations for civil time zones like CET, EST, etc. and sometimes the same abbreviation is even used for two very different time zones. For this reason, both ISO 8601 and this format specify numeric representations of time zone offsets.

Examples of date-time values with expanded years:
