Java:

// Chapter 3 Programming Activity 2 // Calling class methods // YOUR NAME GOES HERE // import java.util.*; public class PracticeMethods2 { public static void main( String [] args ) { // The GregorianCalendar class is included in java.util package. // It describes a point in time, as measured by the Gregorian calendar - the standard calendar // that is commonly used throughout the world today. // // You construct a GregorianCalendar object from a year, month, and a day of the month, like this: // // GregorianCalendar myDate = new GregorianCalendar(); // Today's date // GregorianCalendar independenceDay = new GregorianCalendar(1776, Calendar.JULY, 4); // specific date // // Use the values Calendar.JANUARY, ... , Calendar.DECEMBER to specify the month // January is 0, February is 1, ... // // The add method can be used to add a number of days to a GregorianCalendar object: // // myDate.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 10); // now myDate is ten days from today // // Note that add is a mutator method - it changes the myDate object // // The get method can be used to query a given GregorianCalendar object: // // int dayOfMonth = myDate.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH); // int month = myDate.get(Calendar.MONTH); // int year = myDate.get(Calendar.YEAR); // int weekday = myDate.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK); // 1 is Sunday, 2 is Monday, ... , 7 is Saturday

// **** // Go to java API http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/ and locate documentation for the GregorianCalendar class // // Now write a program that: // 1. Creates GregorianCalendar object that represents your birth date

// 2. prints the weekday of your birthday

// 3. computes (calls add method) and prints the date that is 10,000 days from your birthday

// 4. computes and prints the day of a month and its weekday that is a given number of days from today. // 4a. create GregorianCalendar object that represents today's date // 4b. use Scanner to get the number of days from the user // 4c. compute and print the date that is the requested number of days from today

// HINT: The GregorianCalendar class is complex, and it is a really good idea to explore the API // before tackling the whole problem. // Implement one step at a time, compile and test it before moving to the next step } }
