# MONTH function
|
||||
::: warning
|
||||
🚧 This function is implemented but currently lacks detailed documentation. For guidance, you may refer to the equivalent functionality in [Microsoft Excel documentation](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/excel-functions-by-category-5f91f4e9-7b42-46d2-9bd1-63f26a86c0eb).

## Overview
|
||||
MONTH is a function of the Date and Time category that extracts the month from a valid date [serial number](/features/serial-numbers.md), returning a number in the range [1, 12].
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
### Syntax
|
||||
**MONTH(<span title="Number" style="color:#1E88E5">date</span>) => <span title="Number" style="color:#1E88E5">month</span>**
|
||||
### Argument descriptions
|
||||
* *date* ([number](/features/value-types#numbers), required). The date for which the month is to be calculated, expressed as a [serial number](/features/serial-numbers.md) in the range [1, 2958466). The value 1 corresponds to the date 1899-12-31, while 2958465 corresponds to 9999-12-31.
|
||||
### Additional guidance
|
||||
If the supplied _date_ argument has a fractional part, MONTH uses its [floor value](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions).
|
||||
### Returned value
|
||||
MONTH returns an integer [number](/features/value-types#numbers) in the range [1, 12], that is the month according to the [Gregorian calendar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_calendar). The value 1 corresponds to January, 2 corresponds to February and so on.
|
||||
### Error conditions
|
||||
* In common with many other IronCalc functions, MONTH propagates errors that are found in its argument.
|
||||
* If no argument, or more than one argument, is supplied, then MONTH returns the [`#ERROR!`](/features/error-types.md#error) error.
|
||||
* If the value of the *date* argument is not (or cannot be converted to) a [number](/features/value-types#numbers), then MONTH returns the [`#VALUE!`](/features/error-types.md#value) error.
|
||||
* For some argument values, MONTH may return the [`#DIV/0!`](/features/error-types.md#div-0) error.
|
||||
* If date is less than 0, or greater than or equal to 2,958,466, then MONTH returns the [`#NUM!`](/features/error-types.md#num) error.
|
||||
* At present, MONTH does not accept a string representation of a date literal as an argument. For example, the formula `=MONTH("2024-12-31")` returns the [`#VALUE!`](/features/error-types.md#value) error.

## Details
|
||||
IronCalc utilizes Rust's [chrono](https://docs.rs/chrono/latest/chrono/) crate to implement the MONTH function.

||||
## Examples
