Getting current time in JavaScript

To get the current time in JavaScript, we need to use three library functions of Date class,

  1. Date getHours() Method – It returns current hours
  2. Date getMinutes() Method – It returns current minutes
  3. Date getSeconds() Method – It returns current seconds

Note: To call these functions, we need to create an object to the Date class using Date class constructor.

Examples:

    Date class constructor:
    var dt = new Date();

    Function calls:
    dt.getHours();
    dt.getMinues();
    dt.getSeconds();
    
    Output:
    20
    12
    35
