Last Updated :
19 May, 2023
The date.getUTCMilliseconds() method is used to fetch the millisecond according to universal time from a given Date object (returns a value ranging from 0 to 999).
Syntax:
DateObj.getUTCMilliseconds();
Parameter: This method does not accept any parameter. It is just used along with a Date Object from which we want to fetch milliseconds according to universal time.
Return Values: It returns the millisecond for the given date object according to universal time. Milliseconds is an integer value ranging from 0 to 999.
Note: The DateObj is a valid Date object created using the Date() constructor from which we want to fetch milliseconds according to universal time.
Example 1: Below is an example of the Date getUTCMilliseconds() method.
Javascript
let dateobj =
new Date( 'October 15, 1996 05:35:32:77 GMT+11:00' );
let B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
console.log(B);
|
Output:
77
Example 2: The date of the month should lie between 1 to 31 because none of the months have a date greater than 31 that is why it returns NaN i.e, not a number because the date for the month does not exist. Millisecond will not be existed according to universal time if the date of the month does not exist.
Javascript
let dateobj =
new Date( 'October 33, 1996 05:35:32:77 GMT+11:00' );
let B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
console.log(B);
|
Output:
NaN
Example 3: If a millisecond is not given to the Date() constructor while creating a Date object, the getUTCMilliseconds() method returns zero (0) according to universal time.
Javascript
let dateobj =
new Date( 'October 13, 1996 05:35:32 GMT+11:00' );
let B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
console.log(B);
|
Output:
0
Example 4: If nothing as a parameter is given to the Date() constructor while creating a Date object, the getUTCMilliseconds() method returns the current millisecond according to universal time.
Javascript
let dateobj = new Date();
let B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
console.log(B);
|
Output:
566
Example 5: If a millisecond outside the range [0,999] is given to the Date() constructor while creating a Date object, the getUTCMilliseconds() method returns 0 as an exception because the millisecond’s range is in between 0 to 999 and 1003 is out of this range.
Javascript
let dateobj =
new Date( 'October 13, 1996 05:35:32:1003 GMT+11:00' );
let B = dateobj.getUTCMilliseconds();
console.log(B);
|
Output:
0
