Format Year in yyyy format in Java
To format year in yyyy format is like displaying the entire year. For example, 2018.
Use the yyyy format like this −
SimpleDateFormat("yyyy");
Let us see an example −
// year in yyyy format SimpleDateFormat simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy"); String strYear = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Current Year = "+strYear);
Above, we have used the SimpleDateFormat class, therefore the following package is imported −
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
The following is an example −
Example
import java.text.Format; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.Date; import java.util.Calendar; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { // displaying current date and time Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); SimpleDateFormat simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("E, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss"); System.out.println("Date and time = "+simpleformat.format(cal.getTime())); // displaying date simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MMMM/yyyy"); String str = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Current Date = "+str); // year in yyyy format simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy"); String strYear = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Current Year = "+strYear); } }
Output
Date and time = Mon, 26 Nov 2018 11:12:39 Current Date = 26/November/2018 Current Year = 2018
