How do I discover the Quarter of a given Date?

Question

Given a java.util.Date object how do I go about finding what Quarter it\'s in?

Assuming Q1 = Jan Feb Mar, Q2 = Apr, May, Jun, etc.

Answer 1

In Java 8 and later, the java.time classes have a more simple version of it. Use LocalDate and IsoFields

LocalDate.now().get(IsoFields.QUARTER_OF_YEAR)
