# dayOfYear

> Determine the day of the year.

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var dayOfYear = require( '@stdlib/time/day-of-year' );
```

#### dayOfYear( \[month\[, day, year]] )

Returns the day of the year.

```javascript
var num = dayOfYear();
// returns <number>
```

By default, the function returns the day of the year for the current date (according to local time). To determine the day of the year for a particular day, provide `month`, `day`, and `year` arguments.

```javascript
var num = dayOfYear( 12, 31, 2016 );
// returns 366

num = dayOfYear( 12, 31, 2017 );
// returns 365
```

A `month` may be either a month's integer value, three letter abbreviation, or full name (case insensitive).

```javascript
var num = dayOfYear( 12, 31, 2016 );
// returns 366

num = dayOfYear( 'dec', 31, 2016 );
// returns 366

num = dayOfYear( 'december', 31, 2016 );
// returns 366
```

The function also supports providing a [`Date`][date-object] object.

```javascript
var num = dayOfYear( new Date() );
// returns <number>
```
