Some examples of Calendar fields are : YEAR, DATE, MONTH, DAY_OF_WEEK, DAY_OF_YEAR, WEEK_OF_YEAR, MINUTE, SECOND, HOUR, AM_PM, WEEK_OF_MONTH, DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH, HOUR_OF_DAY.
Syntax :
public int get(int field) where, field represents the given calendar field and the function returns the value of given field.
Exception : If the specified field is out of range, then ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown.
Applications :
Example 1: To fetch Date, Month, Year
// Java code to implement calendar.get() functionimport java.util.*; class GFG { // Driver codepublic static void main(String[] args) { // creating a calendar Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(); // get the value of DATE field System.out.println("Day : " + c.get(Calendar.DATE)); // get the value of MONTH field System.out.println("Month : " + c.get(Calendar.MONTH)); // get the value of YEAR field System.out.println("Year : " + c.get(Calendar.YEAR));}} |
Output :
Day : 1 Month : 2 Year : 2018
Example 2 : To fetch Day of the week, Day of the year, Week of the month, Week of the year.
// Java Code of calendar.get() functionimport java.util.*; class GFG { // Driver codepublic static void main(String[] args) { // creating a calendar Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(); // get the value of DATE_OF_WEEK field System.out.println("Day of week : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK)); // get the value of DAY_OF_YEAR field System.out.println("Day of year : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR)); // get the value of WEEK_OF_MONTH field System.out.println("Week in Month : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_MONTH)); // get the value of WEEK_OF_YEAR field System.out.println("Week in Year : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR)); // get the value of DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH field System.out.println("Day of Week in Month : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH));}} |
Output :
Day of week : 5 Day of year : 60 Week in Month : 1 Week in Year : 9 Day of Week in Month : 1
Example 3 : To fetch Hour, Minute, Second and AM_PM.
// Implementation of calendar.get()// function in Javaimport java.util.*; class GFG { // Driver code public static void main(String[] args) { // creating a calendar Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(); // get the value of HOUR field System.out.println("Hour : " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR)); // get the value of MINUTE field System.out.println("Minute : " + c.get(Calendar.MINUTE)); // get the value of SECOND field System.out.println("Second : " + c.get(Calendar.SECOND)); // get the value of AM_PM field System.out.println("AM or PM : " + c.get(Calendar.AM_PM)); // get the value of HOUR_OF_DAY field System.out.println("Hour (24-hour clock) : " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY)); }} |
Output :
Hour : 6 Minute : 51 Second : 53 AM or PM : 0 Hour (24-hour clock) : 6
