LocalDateTime Class getSecond() method

• getSecond() method is available in java.time package.
• getSecond() method is used to get second-of-minute field value from this date-time.
• getSecond() method is a non-static method, it is accessible with the class object only and if we try to access the method with the class name then we will get an error.
• getSecond() method does not throw an exception at the time of getting seconds of the minute.

Syntax:

    public int getSecond();

Parameter(s):

• None

Return value:

The return type of this method is int, it returns the value second-of-minute field from this object and the number of seconds in a minute starts from 0 and ends at 59.

Example:

// Java program to demonstrate the example 
// of getSecond() method of LocalDateTime

import java.time.*;

public class GetSecondOfLocalDateTime {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        // Instantiates two LocalDateTime
        LocalDateTime da_ti1 = LocalDateTime.parse("2005-10-05T10:10:10");
        LocalDateTime da_ti2 = LocalDateTime.now();

        // Display da_ti1, da_ti2
        System.out.println("LocalDateTime da_ti1 and da_ti2: ");
        System.out.println("da_ti1: " + da_ti1);
        System.out.println("da_ti2: " + da_ti2);

        System.out.println();

        // Here, this method returns the field
        // value second-of-minute in an integer
        // from this date-time object (da_ti1)
        int get_sec = da_ti1.getSecond();

        // Display get_sec
        System.out.print("da_ti1.getSecond(): ");
        System.out.println(get_sec);

        // Here, this method returns the field
        // value second-of-minute in an integer 
        // from this date-time object (da_ti2)
        get_sec = da_ti2.getSecond();

        // Display get_sec
        System.out.print("da_ti2.getSecond(): ");
        System.out.println(get_sec);
    }
}

Output

LocalDateTime da_ti1 and da_ti2: 
da_ti1: 2005-10-05T10:10:10
da_ti2: 2020-06-06T20:47:59.363311

da_ti1.getSecond(): 10
da_ti2.getSecond(): 59
