There is a challenge on hackerrank Java Date and Time

personally, I prefer the LocalDate class.

1. Import java.time.LocalDate
2. Retrieve localDate by using "of" method which takes 3 arguments in "int" format.
3. finally, get the name of that day using "getDayOfWeek" method.

There is one video on this challenge.
