In this topic, we will explore easily and interestingly how to find the date of the last Saturday after a specific month in Java.
FIND LAST SATURDAY AFTER MONTHS
Introduction:
1. Select a Month: Choose a specific month for which you want to find the last Saturday.
Example: Let’s say we want to find the last Saturday after July 2024.
2. Calculate the Date: Use Java’s `LocalDate` and `TemporalAdjusters` to find the last Saturday.
Program:
import java.time.LocalDate; import java.time.Month; import java.time.temporal.TemporalAdjusters; public class LastSaturdayAfterMonthExample { public static void main(String[] args) { int year = 2024; Month month = Month.JULY; LocalDate lastSaturday = LocalDate.of(year, month, 1) .with(TemporalAdjusters.lastInMonth(java.time.DayOfWeek.SATURDAY)); System.out.println("Last Saturday after " + month + " " + year + " is on: " + lastSaturday); } }
In this example:
- We set `year` to 2024 and `month` to `Month.JULY`.
- `LocalDate.of(year, month, 1)` creates a `LocalDate` object for the first day of July 2024.
- `.with(TemporalAdjusters.lastInMonth(java.time.DayOfWeek.SATURDAY))` adjusts the date to the last Saturday of that month.
3. Output: Print or use `lastSaturday`, which now holds the date of the last Saturday after July 2024.
Explanation:
TemporalAdjusters.lastInMonth(DayOfWeek.SATURDAY): This method adjusts the date to the last occurrence of a specific day of the week within the month. In our case, `DayOfWeek.SATURDAY` ensures we get the last Saturday after the given month.
LocalDate: Represents a date without time information, making it suitable for date calculations like this.
Output:
Last Saturday after JULY 2024 is on: 2024-07-27
By using these Java classes and methods, you can efficiently find the date of the last Saturday after any given month.
