Program 1:

// Program to illustrate the atYear() method

import java.util.*;
import java.time.*;

public class GfG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Parses the date
        MonthDay tm = MonthDay.parse("--12-06");

        // Uses the function
        LocalDate dt = tm.atYear(2018);

        // Prints the date
        System.out.println(dt);
    }
}

Output:

2018-12-06

Program 2:

// Program to illustrate the atYear() method

import java.util.*;
import java.time.*;

public class GfG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Parses the date
        MonthDay tm = MonthDay.parse("--01-01");

        // Uses the function
        LocalDate dt = tm.atYear(2010);

        // Prints the date
