Below programs illustrate the now(ZoneId zone) method of YearMonth in Java:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// YearMonth.now(ZoneId zone) method  import java.time.*;import java.time.temporal.*;  public class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // apply now(ZoneId zone) method        // of YearMonth class        YearMonth result            = YearMonth.now(                ZoneId.systemDefault());          // print both year and month        System.out.println("YearMonth: "                           + result);    }} |
Output:
YearMonth: 2020-05
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// YearMonth.now(ZoneId zone) method  import java.time.*;import java.time.temporal.*;  public class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // apply now(ZoneId zone) method        // of YearMonth class        YearMonth result            = YearMonth.now(                ZoneId.systemDefault());          // print only year        System.out.println(            "Year: "            + result.get(                  ChronoField.YEAR));    }} |
Output:
Year: 2020
Program 3:
// Java program to demonstrate// YearMonth.now(ZoneId zone) method  import java.time.*;import java.time.temporal.*;  public class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // apply now(ZoneId zone) method        // of YearMonth class        YearMonth result            = YearMonth.now(                ZoneId.systemDefault());          // print only month        System.out.println(            "Month: "            + result.get(                  ChronoField.MONTH_OF_YEAR));    }} |
Output:
Month: 5
