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