I never notice that version! Too bad we cannot do setInterval(all, 1000, new Date()); to make a clock

You can just get the time from within the function.

I know. But still

console.log is good to check your answer's functionality easily, you can keep @mplungjan 's edit ;)

Thanks a lot for answering me on time
