Finding astrological signs based on birthdates using JavaScript
Problem
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in a date object. And based on that object our function should return the astrological sign related to that birthdate.
Example
Following is the code −
const date = new Date();
// as on 2 April 2021
const findSign = (date) => {
const days = [21, 20, 21, 21, 22, 22, 23, 24, 24, 24, 23, 22];
const signs = ["Aquarius", "Pisces", "Aries", "Taurus", "Gemini", "Cancer", "Leo", "Virgo", "Libra", "Scorpio", "Sagittarius", "Capricorn"];
let month = date.getMonth();
let day = date.getDate();
if(month == 0 && day <= 20){
month = 11;
}else if(day < days[month]){
month--;
};
return signs[month];
};
console.log(findSign(date));Output
Aries
The output may vary based on the time we are running the function because we are using current date.
