2.5.3 Extracting a Date Component
When extracting calendar elements within a date (year, month, quarter, etc.) use the date functions within the CALC function library. For example:
//extracting the current date and time
var todDate = CALC.today(); //e.g., Feb-21-2007
//extracting the year
var y = CALC.year(todDate); // 2007
//extracting the quarter
var q = CALC.quarter(todDate); // 1
//extracting the day of the week
var dow = CALC.weekdayname(todDate); // Wednesday
//extracting the date
var d = CALC.day(todDate); // 21
//extracting the month
var m = CALC.month(todDate); // 2
