Java Program to Get Yesterday’s Date with Output

In this tutorial, I will share a Java program to get yesterday’s date with an output. Copy the below and execute it with the help of Java compiler and see the output.

In this program, I have used pre-define classes:
1) java.util.Calendar
2) java.text.DateFormat and
3) java.text.SimpleDateFormat

At the end of this tutorial, I shared the output of this Java program. It will print the date in “dd MMM yyyy” format.

Java Program to Get Yesterday’s Date with Output

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
 
class ExGetYesterdayDate
{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        String yesterdayDate=null; 
         
        Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
         
        cal.add(Calendar.DATE, -1);
         
        //Set the format date
        DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy");
         
        //formatted date
        yesterdayDate=dateFormat.format(cal.getTime());
         
        System.out.println("Yesterday's date = "+ yesterdayDate);       
    }
}

import java.util.Calendar;

import java.text.DateFormat;

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;

class ExGetYesterdayDate

{

public static void main(String args[])

{

String yesterdayDate=null;

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();

cal.add(Calendar.DATE, -1);

//Set the format date

DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy");

//formatted date

yesterdayDate=dateFormat.format(cal.getTime());

System.out.println("Yesterday's date = "+ yesterdayDate);

}

Output

Yesterday’s date = 12 January 2016
