Below programs illustrate the working of getLeastMaximum() Method of Calendar class:
Example 1:
// Java code to illustrate // getLeastMaximum() method   import java.util.*;   public class Calendar_Demo {     public static void main(String args[])     {           // Creating a calendar         Calendar calndr = Calendar.getInstance();           // Getting the required months         System.out.println( "Required Months: "                            + calndr.get(Calendar.MONTH));           // Getting the lowest maximum month         int low_max = calndr.getLeastMaximum(Calendar.MONTH);           // Displaying the results         System.out.println( "The Lowest"                            + " Maximum months: " + low_max);     } } |
Required Months: 1 The Lowest Maximum months: 11
Example 2:
// Java code to illustrate // getLeastMaximum() method   import java.util.*;   public class Calendar_Demo {     public static void main(String args[])     {           // Creating a calendar         Calendar calndr = new GregorianCalendar( 2018 , 6 , 10 );           // Getting the required months         System.out.println( "Required Months: "                            + calndr.get(Calendar.MONTH));           // Getting the lowest maximum month         int low_max = calndr.getLeastMaximum(Calendar.MONTH);           // Displaying the results         System.out.println( "The Lowest"                            + " Maximum months: " + low_max);     } } |
Required Months: 6 The Lowest Maximum months: 11
