Below programs illustrate the above method:
Program 1:
// Java code to show the function getMonths()// to get number of months from given periodimport java.time.Period;import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit; public class PeriodDemo { // Function to get number of months of given period static void getNumberOfDays(int year, int months, int days) { Period period = Period.of(year, months, days); System.out.println(period.getMonths()); } // Driver Code public static void main(String[] args) { int year = 0; int months = 10; int days = 365; getNumberOfDays(year, months, days); }} |
Output:
10
Program 2: This will not convert 13 months to year.
// Java code to show the function getMonths()// to get number of months from given periodimport java.time.Period;import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit; public class PeriodDemo { // Function to get number of months of given period static void getNumberOfDays(int year, int months, int days) { Period period = Period.of(year, months, days); System.out.println(period.getMonths()); } // Driver Code public static void main(String[] args) { int year = 1; int months = 13; int days = 36; getNumberOfDays(year, months, days); }} |
Output:
13
