I understand that. Because the months are zero indexed. But it’s not just the first month that’s “0-indexed”. The list of months is zero indexed. Perhaps I’m arguing semantics - but was simply adding clarity for the reader.
1st becomes 0, 2nd becomes 1, 3rd becomes 2
Yeah, but when days are 1-indexed and month are 0-indexed you just feel it's a very JavaScript thing to do
Yeah absolutely. I’m not disagreeing or saying it’s good.
I’m just correcting the strange wording.
