The date.getUTCDay() method is used to fetch the day of a week according to universal time from a given Date object (ranging from 0 to 6, where 0 represents Sunday).
Syntax:
DateObj.getUTCDay();
Parameter: This method does not accept any parameter. It is just used along with a Date Object from which we want to fetch the date of the month according to universal time.
Return Values: It returns the date of the month for the given date object according to universal time. The date of the month is an integer value ranging from 1 to 31.
Example 1: Below is an example of the Date getUTCDay() method.
Output:
1
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.
Output:
NaN
Example 3: If the date of the month is not given then by default getUTCDay() function returns 1 according to universal time. It is an exceptional case.
Output:
2
