getYearis no longer used and has been replaced by thegetFullYearmethod.The
getYearmethod returns the year minus 1900; thus:
- For years greater than or equal to 2000, the value returned by
getYearis 100 or greater. For example, if the year is 2026,getYearreturns 126.- For years between and including 1900 and 1999, the value returned by
getYearis between 0 and 99. For example, if the year is 1976,getYearreturns 76.- For years less than 1900, the value returned by
getYearis less than 0. For example, if the year is 1800,getYearreturns -100.- To take into account years before and after 2000, you should use
getFullYearinstead ofgetYearso that the year is specified in full.
