Calculate percentage between two dates in JavaScript

Question

I've been trying to calculate the percentage between two dates given the code from some questions here in StackOverflow but the code doesn't work correctly. This is the question: Get the percent of time elapsed between two javascript dates

var start = new Date(2015,6,1),
end = new Date(2015,12,1),
today = new Date();

alert(Math.round(( ( today - start ) / ( end - start ) ) * 100) + "%");

I want to calculate the progress from the 1rst of june to the 1rst of december and I get "-7"

Please help! Thanks

Answer 1

 var start = new Date(2015,6,1),
 end = new Date(2015,11,1),
 today = new Date();

 //use Math.abs to avoid sign
 var q = Math.abs(today-start);
 var d = Math.abs(end-start);
 alert("Rounded: "+Math.round((q/d)*100) + "%");
 alert("Fraction: "+((q/d)*100) + "%");

Answer 2

你的问题是，6月是7月，而不是6月，所以你的答案是负面的。

Answer 3

Javascript计算从0到11的月份。一月是0，十二月是11.您指定了6月到12月，但输入了6和12。

Answer 4

Here you go:

var start = new Date(2015,6,1),
end = new Date(2015,12,1),
today = new Date();

alert( Math.round(((end - start) * 100 ) / today) + '%' );
