The normalized() method of ChronoPeriod interface in Java is used to return a new instance of ChronoPeriod after normalizing years and months.
Syntax:
ChronoPeriod normalized()
Parameters: This function does not accepts any parameter.
Return Value: This function returns a new instance of ChronoPeriod after normalizing year and month of the period.
Exceptions: It throws an ArithmeticException. This exception is caught if numeric overflow occurs.
Below program illustrates the above method:
Program 1:
// Java code to show the function to normalize// months and years of the period import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*;import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit; public class ChronoPeriodClass { // Function to normalize given periods static void toNormalize(ChronoPeriod p1) { System.out.println(p1.normalized()); } // Driver Code public static void main(String[] args) { // Defining period int year = 4; int months = 15; int days = 10; ChronoPeriod p1 = Period.of(year, months, days); toNormalize(p1); }} |
Output:
P5Y3M10D
Program 2: This will not normalize the number of days.
// Java code to show the function to normalize// months and years of the period import java.time.*;import java.time.chrono.*;import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit; public class ChronoPeriodClass { // Function to normalize given periods static void toNormalize(ChronoPeriod p1) { System.out.println(p1.normalized()); } // Driver Code public static void main(String[] args) { // Defining period int year = 10; int months = 25; int days = 366; ChronoPeriod p1 = Period.of(year, months, days); toNormalize(p1); }} |
Output:
P12Y1M366D
