The dividedBy(long) method of Duration Class in java.time package is used to get an immutable copy of this duration divided by the value passed as the parameter.
Syntax:
public Duration dividedBy(long divisor)
Parameters: This method accepts a parameter divisor which is the value to be divided. It can be positive or negative value.
Return Value: This method returns a Duration which is an immutable copy of the existing duration with the parameter value 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"); // divisor value long divisor = 2; // Get the duration divided // using dividedBy() method System.out.println(duration1 .dividedBy(divisor)); }} |
Output:
PT25H32M
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"); // divisor value long divisor = 10; // Get the duration divided // using dividedBy() method System.out.println(duration1 .dividedBy(divisor)); }} |
Output:
PT5H6M24S
