The of() method is a built-in method of the Month ENUM which is used to generate a Month instance from an integer value. The integer value should be in the range 1-12 representing any of the 12 months and the method generates a Month instance from it representing a month-of-year.
Syntax:
public static Month of(int month)
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter month, which is of integer type.
Return Value: This method returns the corresponding Month instance generated using the parameter passed.
Exception: This method throws a DateTimeException if the month of year passed to the parameter is not valid.
Below programs illustrate the above method:
Program 1:
import java.time.*;import java.time.Month;import java.time.temporal.ChronoField; class monthEnum { public static void main(String[] args) { // Create a month instance Month month = Month.of(2); // Print the month Instance System.out.println(month); }} |
Output:
FEBRUARY
Program 2:
import java.time.*;import java.time.Month;import java.time.temporal.ChronoField; class monthEnum { public static void main(String[] args) { // Create a month instance Month month = Month.of(12); // Print the month Instance System.out.println(month); }} |
