Format hour in kk (01-24) format in Java

The “kk” format in Java Date is used to format hour in 01-24 format. Use SimpleDateFormat("kk") to get the same format.

// displaying hour in kk format SimpleDateFormat simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("kk"); String strHour = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Hour in kk format = "+strHour);

Above, we have used the SimpleDateFormat class, therefore the following package is imported −

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;

The following is an example −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.text.Format; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.Date; import java.util.Calendar; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { // displaying current date and time Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); SimpleDateFormat simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("E, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss"); System.out.println("Date and time = "+simpleformat.format(cal.getTime())); // displaying date simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MMMM/yyyy"); String str = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Current Date = "+str); // current time simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH.mm.ss"); String strTime = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Current Time = "+strTime); // displaying hour in kk format simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("kk"); String strHour = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Hour in kk format = "+strHour); } }

Output

Date and time = Mon, 26 Nov 2018 10:08:12 Current Date = 26/November/2018 Current Time = 10.08.12 Hour in kk format = 10
