minusMinutes() method of a ZonedDateTime class used to subtract the number of minutes from this ZonedDateTime and return a copy of ZonedDateTime after subtraction.This method operates on the instant time-line, such that subtracting one minute will always be a duration of one minute earlier. This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
Syntax:
public ZonedDateTime minusMinutes(long minutes)
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter minutes which represents the minutes to subtract, It can be negative.
Return value: This method returns a ZonedDateTime based on this date-time with the minutes subtracted, not null.
Exception: This method throws DateTimeException if the result exceeds the supported date range.
Below programs illustrate the minusMinutes() method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// ZonedDateTime.minusMinutes() method import java.time.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a ZonedDateTime object ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime = ZonedDateTime.parse( "2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]"); // print instance System.out.println("ZonedDateTime before" + " subtracting minutes: " + zoneddatetime); // subtract 15 minutes ZonedDateTime returnvalue = zoneddatetime.minusMinutes(15); // print result System.out.println("ZonedDateTime after " + " subtracting 15 minutes: " + returnvalue); }} |
ZonedDateTime before subtracting minutes: 2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]
ZonedDateTime after subtracting 15 minutes: 2018-12-06T19:06:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// ZonedDateTime.minusMinutes() method import java.time.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a ZonedDateTime object ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime = ZonedDateTime.parse( "2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]"); // print instance System.out.println("ZonedDateTime before" + " subtracting minutes: " + zoneddatetime); // subtract 20 minutes ZonedDateTime returnvalue = zoneddatetime.minusMinutes(20); // print result System.out.println("ZonedDateTime after " + " subtracting 20 minutes: " + returnvalue); }} |
ZonedDateTime before subtracting minutes: 2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]
ZonedDateTime after subtracting 20 minutes: 2018-10-25T22:52:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]
