Working with Dates and Times

Local datetime

Update the code to create a date time object for May 15, 2024 at 2:30 PM in the UTC+2 timezone.

Java
var datetime = ZonedDateTime.of(
    2024, 05, 15, 14, 30, 00, 0,
    /*select:ZoneId.of("+02:00")*/
);

  • ❏ "+02:30"

  • ❏ "-02:00"

  • ❏ ZoneId.of("02:00")

  • ✓ ZoneId.of("+02:00")

Hint

Remember that: - The timezone can be specified using ZoneId.of - You need to specify the timezone offset in the format +hh:mm or -hh:mm

Solution

The correct answer is:

Java
var datetime = ZonedDateTime.of(
    2024, 05, 15, 14, 30, 00, 0,
    ZoneId.of("+02:00")
);

The following code creates a DateTime object representing 2:30 PM on May 15, 2024 in the UTC+2 timezone:

Java
import java.time.ZonedDateTime;
import java.time.ZoneId;

var datetime = ZonedDateTime.of(
    2024, 05, 15, 14, 30, 00, 0,
    ZoneId.of("+02:00")
);
