As a corollary to this question, if you created an object in javascript using the syntax new (Date) how would you pass in any constructor args/params?
In other words is there an equivalent of new Date(2000) or is that just how you would do it?

Although you _can_ do this (as per the answers already posted), I don't understand why you would want to. Even without parameters, the parentheses around `(Date)` are redundant, so why include them? – nnnnnn Nov 23 '11 at 01:46

yeah. my sentiments exactly. but i just had to ask. – Andrew Young Nov 23 '11 at 01:54

The parens return the result of the contained expression, so this will work:
new (Date)(2000);
This is the same as:
new Date(2000);
