The dividedBy(Duration) method of Duration Class in java.time package is used to get an immutable copy of this duration divided by the duration passed as the parameter.
Syntax:
public Duration dividedBy(Duration divisor)
Parameters: This method accepts a parameter divisor which is the duration to be divided. It can be positive or negative duration.
Return Value: This method returns a Duration which is an immutable copy of the existing duration with the parameter duration divided to it.
Exception: This method throws ArithmeticException if numeric overflow occurs.
Below examples illustrate the Duration.dividedBy() method:
Example 1:
// Java code to illustrate dividedBy() method import java.time.Duration; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Duration 1 using parse() method Duration duration1 = Duration.parse("P2DT3H4M"); // Duration 2 as the divisor Duration duration2 = Duration.ofHours(5); // Get the duration divided // using dividedBy() method System.out.println( duration1 .dividedBy(duration2)); }} |
Output:
10
Example 2:
// Java code to illustrate dividedBy() method import java.time.Duration; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Duration 1 using parse() method Duration duration1 = Duration.parse("P2DT3H4M"); // Duration 2 as the divisor Duration duration2 = Duration.ofDays(5); // Get the duration divided // using dividedBy() method System.out.println( duration1 .dividedBy(duration2)); }} |
Output:
0
