Duration toDays() method in Java

The value of a particular duration in the number of days can be obtained using the toDays() method in Java. This method requires no parameters and it returns the duration in the number of days.

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.ofHours(48);
      System.out.println("The duration is: " + d);
      System.out.println("The number of days in the duration is: " + d.toDays());
   }
}

Output

The duration is: PT48H
The number of days in the duration is: 2

Now let us understand the above program.

First the duration is displayed. Then the value of that duration in the number of days is obtained using the toDays() method and displayed. A code snippet that demonstrates this is as follows −

Duration d = Duration.ofHours(48);
System.out.println("The duration is: " + d);
System.out.println("The number of days in the duration is: " + d.toDays());
