Below programs illustrate the plus(long, unit) method:

Program 1:




// Java program to demonstrate
// Year.plus(long, unit) method
  
import java.time.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // create a Year object
        Year year = Year.of(2019);
  
        // print instance
        System.out.println("Year :"
                           + year);
  
        // apply plus(long, unit) method
        // adding 30 years
        Year value
            = year.plus(30, ChronoUnit.YEARS);
  
        // print result
        System.out.println("After addition year: "
                           + value);
    }
}


Output:

Year :2019
After addition year: 2049

Program 2:




// Java program to demonstrate
// Year.plus(long, unit) method
  
import java.time.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // create a Year object
        Year year = Year.of(2022);
  
        // print instance
        System.out.println("Year :"
                           + year);
  
        // apply plus(long, unit) method
        // adding 50 years
        Year value
            = year.plus(50, ChronoUnit.YEARS);
  
        // print result
        System.out.println("After addition year: "
                           + value);
    }
}


Output:

Year :2022
After addition year: 2072
