Format Month in MM format in Java

The MM format is for months in two-digits 01, 02, 03, 04, etc. Here, we will use the following.

SimpleDateFormat("MM");

Let us see an example −

// displaying month in MM format SimpleDateFormat simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("MM"); String strMonth = simpleformat.format(new Date()); System.out.println("Month in MM format = "+strMonth)

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);       // displaying month in MM format       simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("MM");       String strMonth = simpleformat.format(new Date());       System.out.println("Month in MM format = "+strMonth);       // current time       simpleformat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH.mm.ss");       String strTime = simpleformat.format(new Date());       System.out.println("Current Time = "+strTime);    } }

Output

Date and time = Mon, 26 Nov 2018 10:37:29 Current Date = 26/November/2018 Month in MM format = 11 Current Time = 10.37.29
