Date
Date objects are a fundamental programming concept that represent a specific point in time, typically including year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and millisecond components. They are used for handling, manipulating, and formatting dates and times in software applications, enabling operations like date arithmetic, comparisons, and timezone conversions.
Developers should learn and use date objects whenever their applications need to work with temporal data, such as scheduling events, logging timestamps, calculating durations, or displaying dates in user interfaces. This is essential in domains like finance (for transaction dates), e-commerce (for order processing), and social media (for post timestamps), where accurate time handling is critical for functionality and user experience.
