Example 1:
| <!DOCTYPE html> <html>    <head>       <title>           D3.js | d3.timeYears() Function       </title>       <script src =       </script>    </head>   Â   <body>         Â      <script>         Â         // Initialising start and end date          varstart = newDate(2015, 01, 01);          varend = newDate(2020, 01, 01);           Â         // Calling the timeYears() function          // without step value          vara = d3.timeYears(start, end);           Â         // Getting the years values          console.log(a);       </script>    </body> </html>  | 
Output:
["2015-12-31T18:30:00.000Z", "2016-12-31T18:30:00.000Z", "2017-12-31T18:30:00.000Z", "2018-12-31T18:30:00.000Z", "2019-12-31T18:30:00.000Z"]
Example 2:
| <!DOCTYPE html> <html>    <head>       <title>           D3.js | d3.timeYears() Function       </title>       <script src =       </script>    </head>   Â   <body>         Â      <script>         Â         // Initialising start and end date          varstart = newDate(2015, 01, 01);          varend = newDate(2020, 01, 01);           Â         // Calling the timeYears() function          // with step value          vara = d3.timeYears(start, end, 2);           Â         // Getting the years values          console.log(a);       </script>    </body> </html>  | 
Output:
["2015-12-31T18:30:00.000Z", "2017-12-31T18:30:00.000Z", "2019-12-31T18:30:00.000Z"]
