Java
// Java program to demonstrate // Year.parse(CharSequence, DateTimeFormatter) method import java.time.*; import java.time.format.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a formatter DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yy"); // create a Year object // using parse(CharSequence, DateTimeFormatter) Year year = Year.parse(" 18 ", formatter); // print instance System.out.println("Year Parsed:" + year); } } |
Year Parsed:2018
Program 2:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate // Year.parse(CharSequence, formatter) method import java.time.*; import java.time.format.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a formatter DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy"); // create a Year object // using parse(CharSequence, DateTimeFormatter) Year year = Year.parse(" 2087 ", formatter); // print instance System.out.println("Year Parsed:" + year); } } |
