How to check whether the given date represents weekend in Java
At first, display the current date:
LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
Now, get the day of week from the above Date (current date):
DayOfWeek day = DayOfWeek.of(date.get(ChronoField.DAY_OF_WEEK));
On the basis of the above result, use SWITCH to check for the current day. If the day is SATURDAY/SUNDAY, then it’s Weekend.
Example
import java.time.DayOfWeek; import java.time.temporal.ChronoField; import java.time.LocalDate; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] argv) { LocalDate date = LocalDate.now(); DayOfWeek day = DayOfWeek.of(date.get(ChronoField.DAY_OF_WEEK)); switch (day) { case SATURDAY: System.out.println("Weekend - Saturday"); case SUNDAY: System.out.println("Weekend - Sunday"); default: System.out.println("Not a Weekend"); } } }
Output
Not a Weekend
