MonthDay getMonth() method in Java


The month name for a particular MonthDay can be obtained using the getMonth() method in the MonthDay class in Java. This method requires no parameters and it returns the month name in the year.

A program that demonstrates this is given as follows

Example

 Live Demo

import java.time.*;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      MonthDay md = MonthDay.parse("--02-22");
      System.out.println("The MonthDay is: " + md);
      System.out.println("The month is: " + md.getMonth());
   }
}

Output

The MonthDay is: --02-22
The month is: FEBRUARY

Now let us understand the above program.

First the MonthDay is displayed. Then the month name for the MonthDay is displayed using the getMonth() method. A code snippet that demonstrates this is as follows:

MonthDay md = MonthDay.parse("--02-22");
System.out.println("The MonthDay is: " + md);
System.out.println("The month is: " + md.getMonth());
