throws InterruptedException
{
// Creating a calendar
Calendar calndr1 = Calendar.getInstance();
// Displaying the current time
System.out.println( "The Current Time"
+ " is: "
+ calndr1.getTimeInMillis());
// Adding few delay
Thread.sleep( 10000 );
// Creating another calendar
Calendar calndr2 = Calendar.getInstance();
// Displaying the upcoming time
System.out.println( "The Upcoming Time"

// Displaying the current time
System.out.println( "The Current Time"
+ " is: "
+ calndr1.getTimeInMillis());
// Adding few delay
Thread.sleep( 5000 );
// Creating another calendar
