get the date 5 weeks from now in typescript

In TypeScript, we can use the Date object to manipulate dates. To get the date 5 weeks from now, we need to add 5 weeks to the current date. We can use the setDate() and getDate() methods to modify the date.

Here's an example TypeScript function that returns the date 5 weeks from now:

index.ts
function dateFiveWeeksFromNow(): Date {
  const currentDate = new Date();
  const futureDate = new Date();
  futureDate.setDate(currentDate.getDate() + (5 * 7));
  return futureDate;
}
185 chars
7 lines

In this function, we first create a new Date object with the current date. We then create another Date object called futureDate and set it to the current date. We use the setDate() method to add 5 weeks to the futureDate object. The (5 * 7) expression calculates the number of days in 5 weeks, since there are 7 days in a week.

Finally, we return the futureDate object, which now represents the date 5 weeks from now.
