LocalTime plusMinutes() method in Java


An immutable copy of a LocalTime object where some minutes are added to it can be obtained using the plusMinutes() method in the LocalTime class in Java. This method requires a single parameter i.e. the number of minutes to be added and it returns the LocalTime object with the added minutes.

A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.time.*;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      LocalTime lt = LocalTime.now();
      System.out.println("The current LocalTime is: " + lt);
      System.out.println("The LocalTime with 15 minutes added is: " + lt.plusMinutes(15));
   }
}

Output

The current LocalTime is: 08:46:18.067
The LocalTime with 15 minutes added is: 09:01:18.067

Now let us understand the above program.

First the current LocalTime is displayed. Then an immutable copy of the LocalTime where 15 minutes are added is obtained using the plusMinutes() method and this is displayed. A code snippet that demonstrates this is as follows −

LocalTime lt = LocalTime.now();
System.out.println("The current LocalTime is: " + lt);
System.out.println("The LocalTime with 15 minutes added is: " + lt.plusMinutes(15));
