The minusSeconds() method of OffsetTime class in Java returns a copy of this OffsetTime with the specified Seconds in the parameter getting subtracted.
Syntax :
public OffsetTime minusSeconds(long Seconds)
Parameter: This method accepts a single parameter Seconds which the Seconds to be subtracted. It may be negative.
Return Value: It returns a OffsetTime based on this time with the Seconds subtracted and it is not null.
Below programs illustrate the minusSeconds() method:
Program 1 :
// Java program to demonstrate the minusSeconds() method import java.time.OffsetTime; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Parses the time OffsetTime time = OffsetTime.parse("11:10:10+05:05"); // Specified Seconds subtracted System.out.println("After subtraction, time is: " + time.minusSeconds(5)); }} |
Output:
After subtraction, time is: 11:10:05+05:05
Program 2 :
// Java program to demonstrate the minusSeconds() method import java.time.OffsetTime; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Parses the time OffsetTime time = OffsetTime.parse("11:10:10+05:05"); // Specified Seconds subtracted System.out.println("After subtraction, time is: " + time.minusSeconds(-5)); }} |
Output:
After subtraction, time is: 11:10:15+05:05
