The Moon "being out" is as a result of sunlight being reflected off of the moon. The moon itself does not turn on and off like lightbulb. The moon reflects sunlight 24 hours, 7 days a week. The strength of the light coming directly from the Sun is much stronger than that reflected off of the moon, so it is hard to see the Moon during the day. At night, there is no direct sunlight and the Moon becomes apparent.
