ValueRange getMinimum() method in Java with Examples

The getMinimum() method of ValueRange class is used to get the minimum value that the valueRange can take. For example, the ChronoField DAY_OF_WEEK always starts at 1. The minimum is therefore 1. 

Syntax:

public long getMinimum()

Parameters: This method accepts nothing. 

Return value: This method returns the minimum value for this valueRange. 

Below programs illustrate the ValueRange.getMinimum() method: 

Program 1:

Java

// Java program to demonstrate
// ValueRange.getMinimum() method

import java.time.LocalDateTime;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoField;
import java.time.temporal.ValueRange;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // create LocalDateTime
        LocalDateTime l1
            = LocalDateTime
                  .parse("2018-12-06T19:21:12");

        // Get ValueRange object
        ValueRange vR
            = l1.range(ChronoField.DAY_OF_WEEK);

        // apply getMinimum()
        long min = vR.getMinimum();

        // print results
        System.out.println("Minimum for DAY_OF_WEEK: "
                           + min);
    }
}

Output:

Minimum for DAY_OF_WEEK: 1

Program 2:

Java

// Java program to demonstrate
// ValueRange.getMinimum() method

import java.time.temporal.ValueRange;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // create ValueRange object
        ValueRange vRange = ValueRange.of(1111, 99999);

        // get minimum
        long min = vRange.getMinimum();

        // print results
        System.out.println("Minimum : "
                           + min);
    }
}

Output:

Minimum : 1111
