Output:
false
Example 2:
// Java code to illustrate equals() method import java.time.Duration; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Duration using ofHours() method Duration duration1 = Duration.ofHours( 5 ); // Duration using ofHours() method Duration duration2 = Duration.ofHours( 5 ); // Compare the durations // using equals() method System.out.println(duration1 .equals(duration2)); } } |
Output:
true
Example 3:
// Java code to illustrate equals() method import java.time.Duration; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Duration using ofDays() method Duration duration1 = Duration.ofDays( 5 ); // Duration using ofHours() method Duration duration2 = Duration.ofHours( 5 ); // Compare the durations // using equals() method System.out.println(duration1 .equals(duration2)); } } |
