I understand that javascript counts the months starting from 0. However, I don't know how to account for this when getting a date in the future.
For example, when attempting to get the date for tomorrow, the following code returns everything correct except for the month (prints as next month):
const weekday = ["Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday"];
const month = ["Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec"];
var today = new Date();
today.setUTCDate(today.getUTCDate() 1);
let newDate = weekday[today.getDay()] ' ' today.getDate() ' ' month[today.getDay()] ', ' today.getFullYear();
CodePudding user response:
Just replace today.getDay()
to today.getMonth()
const weekday = ["Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday"];
const month = ["Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec"];
var today = new Date();
today.setUTCDate(today.getUTCDate() 1);
let newDate = weekday[today.getDay()] ' ' today.getDate() ' ' month[today.getMonth()] ', ' today.getFullYear();
console.log(newDate)
