Return Value: It returns a Local Date formed by the current year-month and a day of month passed as parameter to the function.

Exception: This method throws a DateTimeException, if the day of month passed in the parameter is not valid.

Java




// Program to illustrate the atDay() method
 
import java.util.*;
import java.time.*;
 
public class GfG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
 
        // Creates a YearMonth object
        YearMonth thisYearMonth = YearMonth.of(2017, 8);
 
        // Creates a local date with this
        // YearMonth object and day passed to it
        LocalDate date = thisYearMonth.atDay(31);
 
        System.out.println(date);
    }
}

        try {
            // Creates a local date with this

            LocalDate date = thisYearMonth.atDay(31);
 
            System.out.println(date);
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e);
