21.3.2 Function Properties of the Math Object
The behaviour of the functions acos, acosh, asin, asinh, atan, atanh, atan2, cbrt, cos, cosh, exp, expm1, hypot, log, log1p, log2, log10, pow, random, sin, sinh, sqrt, tan, and tanh is not precisely specified here except to require specific results for certain argument values that represent boundary cases of interest. For other argument values, these functions are intended to compute approximations to the results of familiar mathematical functions, but some latitude is allowed in the choice of approximation algorithms. The general intent is that an implementer should be able to use the same mathematical library for ECMAScript on a given hardware platform that is available to C programmers on that platform.

21.4 Date Objects
21.4.1 Overview of Date Objects and Definitions of Abstract Operations
The following
21.4.1.1 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 1 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
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
The exact moment of midnight at the beginning of 1 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.

21.4.1.3 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:

21.4.1.18 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 (a subset of the |
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.

This function returns the
21.4.3.2 Date.parse ( string )
This function applies the
If the String conforms to the MM or DD elements are absent, HH, mm, or ss elements are absent, sss element is absent,
If x is any Date whose milliseconds amount is zero within a particular implementation of ECMAScript, then all of the following expressions should produce the same numeric value in that implementation, if all the properties referenced have their initial values:
x.valueOf()
Date.parse(x.toString())
Date.parse(x.toUTCString())

However, the expression
Date.parse(x.toLocaleString())
is not required to produce the same Number value as the preceding three expressions and, in general, the value produced by this function is toString or toUTCString method.
