- First, declare variable time and store the milliseconds of the current date using the new date() for the current date and getTime() Method for returning it in milliseconds since 1 January 1970.
- Convert time into a date object and store it into a new variable date.
- Convert the date object’s contents into a string using date.toString() function

console.log( "Milliseconds = " + date.toString());
}
GFG_Fun()
