Enum Quarter
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable,Comparable<Quarter>,TemporalAccessor,TemporalAdjuster
Quarter is an enum representing the 4 quarters of the year - Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4.
These are defined as January to March, April to June, July to September and October to December.
The int value follows the quarter, from 1 (Q1) to 4 (Q4).
It is recommended that applications use the enum rather than the int value
to ensure code clarity.
Do not use ordinal() to obtain the numeric representation of Quarter.
Use getValue() instead.
This enum represents a common concept that is found in many calendar systems. As such, this enum may be used by any calendar system that has the quarter-of-year concept defined exactly equivalent to the ISO calendar system.
Implementation Requirements:
This is an immutable and thread-safe enum.-

of
Obtains an instance ofQuarterfrom anintvalue.Quarteris an enum representing the 4 quarters of the year. This factory allows the enum to be obtained from theintvalue. Theintvalue follows the quarter, from 1 (Q1) to 4 (Q4).- Parameters:
quarterOfYear- the quarter-of-year to represent, from 1 (Q1) to 4 (Q4)- Returns:
- the quarter-of-year, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if the quarter-of-year is invalid

ofMonth
Obtains an instance ofQuarterfrom a month-of-year.Quarteris an enum representing the 4 quarters of the year. This factory allows the enum to be obtained from theMonthvalue.January to March are Q1, April to June are Q2, July to September are Q3 and October to December are Q4.
- Parameters:
monthOfYear- the month-of-year to convert from, from 1 to 12- Returns:
- the quarter-of-year, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if the month-of-year is invalid
-
from
Obtains an instance ofQuarterfrom a temporal object.This obtains a quarter based on the specified temporal. A
TemporalAccessorrepresents an arbitrary set of date and time information, which this factory converts to an instance ofQuarter.The conversion extracts the
QUARTER_OF_YEARfield. The extraction is only permitted if the temporal object has an ISO chronology, or can be converted to aLocalDate.This method matches the signature of the functional interface
TemporalQueryallowing it to be used in queries via method reference,Quarter::from.- Parameters:
temporal- the temporal-time object to convert, not null- Returns:
- the quarter-of-year, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if unable to convert to aQuarter
-
getValue
public int getValue()Gets the quarter-of-yearintvalue.The values are numbered following the ISO-8601 standard, from 1 (Q1) to 4 (Q4).
- Returns:
- the quarter-of-year, from 1 (Q1) to 4 (Q4)
-
getDisplayName
Gets the textual representation, such as 'Q1' or '4th quarter'.This returns the textual name used to identify the quarter-of-year, suitable for presentation to the user. The parameters control the style of the returned text and the locale.
If no textual mapping is found then the
numeric valueis returned.- Parameters:
style- the length of the text required, not nulllocale- the locale to use, not null- Returns:
- the text value of the quarter-of-year, not null
-
isSupported
Checks if the specified field is supported.This checks if this quarter-of-year can be queried for the specified field. If false, then calling the
rangeandgetmethods will throw an exception.If the field is
QUARTER_OF_YEARthen this method returns true. AllChronoFieldinstances will return false.If the field is not a
ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invokingTemporalField.isSupportedBy(TemporalAccessor)passingthisas the argument. Whether the field is supported is determined by the field.- Specified by:
isSupportedin interfaceTemporalAccessor- Parameters:
field- the field to check, null returns false- Returns:
- true if the field is supported on this quarter-of-year, false if not
-
range
Gets the range of valid values for the specified field.The range object expresses the minimum and maximum valid values for a field. This quarter is used to enhance the accuracy of the returned range. If it is not possible to return the range, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.
If the field is
QUARTER_OF_YEARthen the range of the quarter-of-year, from 1 to 4, will be returned. AllChronoFieldinstances will throw anUnsupportedTemporalTypeException.If the field is not a
ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invokingTemporalField.rangeRefinedBy(TemporalAccessor)passingthisas the argument. Whether the range can be obtained is determined by the field.- Specified by:
rangein interfaceTemporalAccessor- Parameters:
field- the field to query the range for, not null- Returns:
- the range of valid values for the field, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if the range for the field cannot be obtainedUnsupportedTemporalTypeException- if the field is not supported
-
get
Gets the value of the specified field from this quarter-of-year as anint.This queries this quarter for the value for the specified field. The returned value will always be within the valid range of values for the field. If it is not possible to return the value, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.
If the field is
QUARTER_OF_YEARthen the value of the quarter-of-year, from 1 to 4, will be returned. AllChronoFieldinstances will throw anUnsupportedTemporalTypeException.If the field is not a
ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invokingTemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor)passingthisas the argument. Whether the value can be obtained, and what the value represents, is determined by the field.- Specified by:
getin interfaceTemporalAccessor- Parameters:
field- the field to get, not null- Returns:
- the value for the field, within the valid range of values
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if a value for the field cannot be obtained or the value is outside the range of valid values for the fieldUnsupportedTemporalTypeException- if the field is not supported or the range of values exceeds anintArithmeticException- if numeric overflow occurs
-
getLong
Gets the value of the specified field from this quarter-of-year as along.This queries this quarter for the value for the specified field. If it is not possible to return the value, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.
If the field is
QUARTER_OF_YEARthen the value of the quarter-of-year, from 1 to 4, will be returned. All otherChronoFieldinstances will throw anUnsupportedTemporalTypeException.If the field is not a
ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invokingTemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor)passingthisas the argument. Whether the value can be obtained, and what the value represents, is determined by the field.- Specified by:
getLongin interfaceTemporalAccessor- Parameters:
field- the field to get, not null- Returns:
- the value for the field
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if a value for the field cannot be obtainedUnsupportedTemporalTypeException- if the field is not supportedArithmeticException- if numeric overflow occurs
-
plus
Returns the quarter that is the specified number of quarters after this one.The calculation rolls around the end of the year from Q4 to Q1. The specified period may be negative.
This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
- Parameters:
quarters- the quarters to add, positive or negative- Returns:
- the resulting quarter, not null
-
minus
Returns the quarter that is the specified number of quarters before this one.The calculation rolls around the start of the year from Q1 to Q4. The specified period may be negative.
This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
- Parameters:
quarters- the quarters to subtract, positive or negative- Returns:
- the resulting quarter, not null
-
length
public int length(boolean leapYear) Gets the length of this quarter in days.This takes a flag to determine whether to return the length for a leap year or not.
Q1 has 90 in a standard year and 91 days in a leap year. Q2 has 91 days. Q3 and Q4 have 92 days.
- Parameters:
leapYear- true if the length is required for a leap year- Returns:
- the length of this quarter in days, from 90 to 92
-
firstMonth
Gets the first of the three months that this quarter refers to.Q1 will return January.
Q2 will return April.
Q3 will return July.
Q4 will return October.To obtain the other two months of the quarter, simply use
Month.plus(long)on the returned month.- Returns:
- the first month in the quarter, not null
-
query
Queries this quarter-of-year using the specified query.TemporalQueries.chronology()andTemporalQueries.precision()are directly supported. Otherwise, the result of this method is obtained by invokingTemporalAccessor.query(TemporalQuery)on the parent interface.- Specified by:
queryin interfaceTemporalAccessor- Type Parameters:
R- the type of the result- Parameters:
query- the query to invoke, not null- Returns:
- the query result, null may be returned (defined by the query)
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if unable to query (defined by the query)ArithmeticException- if numeric overflow occurs (defined by the query)
-
adjustInto
Adjusts the specified temporal object to have this quarter-of-year.This returns a temporal object of the same observable type as the input with the quarter-of-year changed to be the same as this.
The adjustment is equivalent to using
Temporal.with(TemporalField, long)passingIsoFields.QUARTER_OF_YEARas the field. If the specified temporal object does not use the ISO calendar system then aDateTimeExceptionis thrown.In most cases, it is clearer to reverse the calling pattern by using
Temporal.with(TemporalAdjuster):// these two lines are equivalent, but the second approach is recommended temporal = thisQuarter.adjustInto(temporal); temporal = temporal.with(thisQuarter);
For example, given a date in May, the following are output:
dateInMay.with(Q1); // three months earlier dateInMay.with(Q2); // no change dateInMay.with(Q3); // three months later dateInMay.with(Q4); // six months later
This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
- Specified by:
adjustIntoin interfaceTemporalAdjuster- Parameters:
temporal- the target object to be adjusted, not null- Returns:
- the adjusted object, not null
- Throws:
DateTimeException- if unable to make the adjustmentArithmeticException- if numeric overflow occurs
