Example 1:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html>    <head>       <title>           D3.js | d3.utcYear Function       </title>       <script src =       </script>    </head>       <body>                <script>                   // Initialising start and end date          var start = new Date(2015, 01, 01);          var end = new Date(2020, 01, 01);                     // Calling the utcYear function          // without step value          var a = d3.utcYear.range(start, end);                     // Getting the years values          console.log(a);       </script>    </body> </html> |
Output:
["2016-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "2017-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "2018-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "2019-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "2020-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"]
Example 2:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html>    <head>       <title>           D3.js | d3.utcYear Function       </title>       <script src =       </script>    </head>       <body>                <script>                   // Initialising start and end date          var start = new Date(2015, 01, 01);          var end = new Date(2020, 01, 01);                     // Calling the utcYear function          // with step value          var a = d3.utcYear.range(start, end, 2);                     // Getting the years values          console.log(a);       </script>    </body> </html> |
Output:
["2016-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "2018-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "2020-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"]
