minus(TemporalAmount) method of a ChronoLocalDate interface used to returns a copy of this ChronoLocalDate with the specified amount subtracted to ChronoLocalDate.The amount is typically Period or Duration but may be any other type implementing the TemporalAmount interface.
Syntax:
public ChronoLocalDate minus(TemporalAmount amountTosubtract)
Parameters: This method accepts one single parameter amountTosubtract which is the amount to subtract, It should not be null.
Return value: This method returns ChronoLocalDate based on this date-time with the subtraction made, not null.
Exception: This method throws following Exceptions:
- DateTimeException: if the subtraction cannot be made
- ArithmeticException: if numeric overflow occurs
Below programs illustrate the minus() method:
Program 1:
Java
import java.time.*;
import java.time.chrono.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
ChronoLocalDate zonedlt
= LocalDate.parse(" 2018 - 12 - 06 ");
ChronoLocalDate value
= zonedlt.minus(Period.ofDays( 30 ));
System.out.println("ChronoLocalDate after"
+ " subtracting Days: "
+ value);
}
}
|
Output: ChronoLocalDate after subtracting Days: 2018-11-06
