var num = minutesInYear( new Date() );

num = minutesInYear( 2000 );
// returns 527040

num = minutesInYear( 2017 );
// returns 525600

Notes

  • The function's return value is a generalization and does not take into account inaccuracies due to daylight savings conventions, crossing timezones, or other complications with time and dates.

Examples

var minutesInYear = require( '@stdlib/time/minutes-in-year' );

var v;
var i;

for ( i = 0; i < 2021; i++ ) {
