LocalDate plusWeeks() method in Java


An immutable copy of the LocalDate where the weeks are added to it can be obtained using the plusWeeks() method in the LocalDate class in Java. This method requires a single parameter i.e. the number of weeks to be added and it returns the instant with the added weeks.

A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.time.*;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      LocalDate ld1 = LocalDate.parse("2019-02-14");
      System.out.println("The LocalDate is: " + ld1);
      LocalDate ld2 = ld1.plusWeeks(2);
      System.out.println("The LocalDate after adding 2 weeks is: " + ld2);
   }
}

Output

The LocalDate is: 2019-02-14
The LocalDate after adding 2 weeks is: 2019-02-28

Now let us understand the above program.

First, the LocalDate is displayed. Then an immutable copy of the LocalDate where 2 weeks are added is obtained using the plusWeeks() method and this is displayed. A code snippet that demonstrates this is as follows −

LocalDate ld1 = LocalDate.parse("2019-02-14");
System.out.println("The LocalDate is: " + ld1);
LocalDate ld2 = ld1.plusWeeks(2);
System.out.println("The LocalDate after adding 2 weeks is: " + ld2);
