Playing with Dates

This assignment is mainly intended for you to explore the possibilities of the various time classes within Java. You will need to look for the documentation of the different classes used. To help you get started, we will give you a hint about which classes to look at.

Assignment

Write a program that prints the following information:

• Your date of birth (Monday, day, year; it’s best to use a LocalDate for this).
• What day of the week that was.
• Today’s date (just like the first point).
• How long you have been alive (in other words: how old you are. It’s best to use a Period for this).
• Whether you are older than 21 years (and thus officially an adult).

You will notice that printing a LocalDate is not directly easy to do. Study the DateTimeFormatter class for this and use it to make the output more readable.

Example

You were born on: 25-02-1972
This was a FRIDAY

Today is 13-02-2025
You have been alive for: 52 years, 11 months, 19 days
Because you are older than 21 years, we consider you an adult!
