In Java, you can convert a date into a yyyy-MM-dd format using the SimpleDateFormat
class. Here’s an example of how you can do this:
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
public class DateConverter {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Date date = new Date();
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
String formattedDate = formatter.format(date);
System.out.println(formattedDate);
}
}
In this example, we first create a Date
object to represent the current date and time. Then, we create a SimpleDateFormat
object that specifies the format we want to use for the date (yyyy-MM-dd
). Finally, we use the format()
method of the formatter object to convert the date into a string in the specified format. The output will be a string in the format “yyyy-MM-dd”, representing the current date.
