import java.time.OffsetTime;
import java.time.Instant;
import java.time.ZoneId;
  
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Creates an instance
        OffsetTime time = OffsetTime.ofInstant(Instant.now(), 
                                       ZoneId.systemDefault());
  
        System.out.println("Offset time: " + time);
    }
}
