Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate // YearMonth.parse(CharSequence, DateTimeFormatter) method import java.time.*; import java.time.format.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a formater DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern( "yy-MM" ); // create a YearMonth object // using parse(CharSequence, DateTimeFormatter) YearMonth yearMonth = YearMonth.parse( "18-02" , formatter); // print instance System.out.println( "YearMonth Parsed:" + yearMonth); } } |
YearMonth Parsed:2018-02
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate // YearMonth.parse(CharSequence, DateTimeFormatter) method import java.time.*; import java.time.format.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create a formater DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern( "yyyy-MM" ); // create a YearMonth object // using parse(CharSequence, DateTimeFormatter) YearMonth yearMonth = YearMonth.parse( "2100-09" , formatter); // print instance System.out.println( "YearMonth Parsed:" + yearMonth); } } |
