About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Milliseconds in a Day

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Number of milliseconds in a day.

Usage

import MILLISECONDS_IN_DAY from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/constants-time-milliseconds-in-day@esm/index.mjs';

MILLISECONDS_IN_DAY

Number of milliseconds in a day.

var bool = ( MILLISECONDS_IN_DAY === 86400000 );
// returns true

Notes

  • The value is a generalization and does not take into account inaccuracies due to daylight savings conventions, crossing timezones, or other complications with time and dates.

import MILLISECONDS_IN_DAY from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/constants-time-milliseconds-in-day@esm/index.mjs';

var ms;

for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
