ChronoPeriod negated() method in Java with Examples

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
