JavaScript is a popular programming language used for creating interactive web pages and web applications. One common task in web development is getting the day of the week for a given date. In this article, we will explore how to get the day in JavaScript.
Date
ObjectIn JavaScript, the Date
object is used to work with dates and times. To get the current date and time, we can simply create a new Date
object with no arguments:
const now = new Date();
This will create a new Date
object representing the current date and time.
Once we have a Date
object, we can use its getDay()
method to get the day of the week. The getDay()
method returns a number representing the day of the week, where 0 represents Sunday, 1 represents Monday, and so on.
const now = new Date();
const dayOfWeek = now.getDay(); // Returns a number between 0 and 6
To get the actual string representation of the day of the week, we can use an array of strings:
const daysOfWeek = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday'];
const dayOfWeekString = daysOfWeek[now.getDay()]; // Returns a string representation of the day of the week
Getting the day of the week in JavaScript is a simple task using the Date
object's getDay()
method. By using an array of strings, we can easily convert the resulting number to a string representation of the day of the week.
