# New Dates Can Take Out Of Bounds Values
|
||||
|
||||
You can create a new date by feeding it arguments for _year_, _month_, and
|
||||
_day_.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
> new Date(2017, 11, 31)
|
||||
Sun Dec 31 2017 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
What happens if we push the _day_ value out of bounds?
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
> new Date(2017, 11, 32)
|
||||
Mon Jan 01 2018 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It rolls over to the next month.
|
||||
|
||||
Does the same happen when we push the _month_ value out of bounds?
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
> new Date(2017, 12, 31)
|
||||
Wed Jan 31 2018 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Yep.
|
||||
|
||||
What about negative values?
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
> new Date(2018, -1, 31)
|
||||
Sun Dec 31 2017 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It rolls the month, and consequently the year, back.
