Last Updated :
10 Dec, 2018
minusMinutes() method of a ZonedDateTime class used to subtract the number of minutes from this ZonedDateTime and return a copy of ZonedDateTime after subtraction.This method operates on the instant time-line, such that subtracting one minute will always be a duration of one minute earlier. This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
Syntax:
public ZonedDateTime minusMinutes(long minutes)
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter minutes which represents the minutes to subtract, It can be negative.
Return value: This method returns a ZonedDateTime based on this date-time with the minutes subtracted, not null.
Exception: This method throws DateTimeException if the result exceeds the supported date range.
Below programs illustrate the minusMinutes() method:
Program 1:
import java.time.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime
= ZonedDateTime.parse(
"2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]" );
System.out.println( "ZonedDateTime before"
+ " subtracting minutes: "
+ zoneddatetime);
ZonedDateTime returnvalue
= zoneddatetime.minusMinutes( 15 );
System.out.println( "ZonedDateTime after "
+ " subtracting 15 minutes: "
+ returnvalue);
}
}
|
Output:
ZonedDateTime before subtracting minutes: 2018-12-06T19:21:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]
ZonedDateTime after subtracting 15 minutes: 2018-12-06T19:06:12.123+05:30[Asia/Calcutta]
Program 2:
import java.time.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
ZonedDateTime zoneddatetime
= ZonedDateTime.parse(
"2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]" );
System.out.println( "ZonedDateTime before"
+ " subtracting minutes: "
+ zoneddatetime);
ZonedDateTime returnvalue
= zoneddatetime.minusMinutes( 20 );
System.out.println( "ZonedDateTime after "
+ " subtracting 20 minutes: "
+ returnvalue);
}
}

Output:
ZonedDateTime before subtracting minutes: 2018-10-25T23:12:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]
ZonedDateTime after subtracting 20 minutes: 2018-10-25T22:52:31.123+02:00[Europe/Paris]
