I declared a variable to display the today's date.

today : Date = new Date();

I retrieve the informations via the console...

Now, I would like to create a variable to retrieve the day from the today's date.

I created the variable -> day.

today : Date = new Date();
day: Date;

I have an error message ->

error TS2564: Property 'day' has no initializer and is not definitely assigned in the 
constructor. 

I don't understand the problem?

Here is my code, thank for your help.

export class HomeComponent implements OnInit {

  today : Date = new Date();
  day: Date;


  constructor() { }

  ngOnInit(): void {

    this.day = this.today.getDate();

    console.log("Today => "   this.today);
    console.log("Day => "   this.day);        
  }

}

You've got two options to address this error:

error TS2564: Property 'day' has no initializer and is not definitely assigned in the 
constructor. 

1. Initialise property in constructor

export class HomeComponent implements OnInit {

  today : Date = new Date();
  day: Date;


  constructor() {
      day = new Date();
  }
// ...
}

2. Initialise property inline

export class HomeComponent implements OnInit {

  today : Date = new Date();
  day: Date | undefined = undefined;
// ...
}
