Using JavaScript how to convert 1524801600000 to new Date(YYYY,MM,DD)

Question

Currently I am getting date as string 1524801600000. I want to convert it as new Date(2018, 4, 27).

How can I do that using jQuery or JavaScript?

Just pass it to Date Constructor.

(+) Unary operator. Attempts to convert the operand to a number, if it is not already. more details here

var temp="1524801600000";
var p=new Date(+temp)
console.log(p)

The OP said it was a string – Jim Rhodes Jan 26 '18 at 21:32
Be sure to call `parseInt` if the value being passed to `Date` is a string, as OP specified – Christian Santos Jan 26 '18 at 21:33

it seems the OP is new to this language judging by his question. It would be nice to explain to him what you are doing with `+temp` – Andrew Lohr Jan 26 '18 at 21:35
