YearMonth Parsed:2019-12
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// YearMonth.parse(CharSequence text) method import java.time.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a YearMonth object // using parse(CharSequence text) YearMonth yearMonth = YearMonth.parse("2022-05"); // print instance System.out.println("YearMonth Parsed:" + yearMonth); }} |
