import java.io.*;
import java.time.*;
import java.time.chrono.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] argv)
{
try {
// Creating and initializing clock
Clock clock = Clock.systemUTC();
// Creating and initializing
// JapaneseDate Object
JapaneseDate hidate
= JapaneseDate.now(clock);
// Display the result
System.out.println( "JapaneseDate: "
+ hidate);
}
catch (DateTimeException e) {
System.out.println( "passed parameter can"
+ " not form a date" );
System.out.println( "Exception thrown: "
+ e);
}
}
