JapaneseChronology range() method in Java with Example

Last Updated : 27 Mar, 2020

The range() method of java.time.chrono.JapaneseChronology class is used get the range of from the specified field of type chrono. Syntax:

public ValueRange range(ChronoField field)

Parameter: This method takes the field of type ChronoField as a parameter. Return Value: This method returns range of from the specified field of type chrono. Below are the examples to illustrate the range() method: Example 1:

Java

// Java program to demonstrate
// range() method

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.time.*;
import java.time.chrono.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        try {
            // creating and initializing
            // JapaneseDate Object
            JapaneseDate hidate
                = JapaneseDate.now();

            // getting JapaneseChronology
            // used in LocalDate
            JapaneseChronology crono
                = hidate.getChronology();

            // getting the ValueRange for
            // given ChronoField
            // by using range() method
            ValueRange range
                = crono.range(ChronoField.ERA);

            // display the result
            System.out.println(
                "Equivalent Range : "
                + range);
        }
        catch (DateTimeException e) {
            System.out.println(
                "passed parameter can"
                + " not form a date");
            System.out.println(
                "Exception thrown: " + e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

Equivalent Range : -1 - 2

                = hidate.getChronology();

            // getting the ValueRange for
            // given ChronoField

            ValueRange range
                = crono.range(
                    ChronoField.YEAR);

            // display the result
            System.out.println(
                "Equivalent Range : "
                + range);
        }

                + " not form a date");
            System.out.println(
                "Exception thrown: " + e);
        }
    }
