import java.time.temporal.ChronoField;
 
public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // create a MonthDay object
        MonthDay month = MonthDay.parse("--10-12");
 
        // apply isSupported() method
        boolean value
            = month.isSupported(
                ChronoField.MONTH_OF_YEAR);
 
        // print result
