How to compare date using filter in controller.js

Question

I have following code. I don't want to use momentjs and want to compare the date with the below codes.

var i = $filter('date')(Date1, 'short');
var j = $filter('date')(Date2, 'short');
var k = j - i;
if (k<0) 
{
   return true;
}
else 
{
   return false;
}

I want to compare my Date1 with Date2 and want to display which one is greatest. But it's not working. So anyone can help me here.

The Comment from hadiJZ is helpful but my suggestion is Use Momentjs which handles all these things pretty good and Precise — Prasad, Mar 01 '16 at 12:12

I changed your code. You need to use Date.parse().

var i = $filter('date')(Date1, 'short');
var j = $filter('date')(Date2, 'short');
var k = Date.parse(j) - Date.parse(i);
if (k<0) 
{
   return true;
}
else 
{
   return false;
}

Try this:

 var i = $filter('date')(Date1, 'short');
 var j = $filter('date')(Date2, 'short');

Now directly compares both of them withour any third variables else as abpve mentioned you need to use parseInt

 if (i > j) 
   return true;
  return false;
