Duration getSeconds() method in Java

The value of a duration in seconds can be obtained using the getSeconds() method in the Duration class in Java. This method requires no parameters and it returns the duration value in seconds.

A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.time.Duration;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Duration d = Duration.ofMinutes(5);
      System.out.println("The duration is: " + d);
      System.out.println("The duration in seconds is: " + d.getSeconds());
   }
}

Output

The duration is: PT5M
The duration in seconds is: 300

Now let us understand the above program.

The duration is printed and then the duration in seconds is printed using the getSeconds() method. A code snippet that demonstrates this is as follows −

Duration d = Duration.ofMinutes(5);
System.out.println("The duration is: " + d);
System.out.println("The duration in seconds is: " + d.getSeconds());
