Java – Find a given date belongs in which quarter:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat();
sdf.applyPattern(“MM/dd/yyyy”);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
Date processDate = sdf.parse(“4/10/2007″);
calendar.setTime(processDate);
Date date1 = calendar.getTime();
int quarter = TestDate.getQuarter(date1);
System.out.println(“Quarter for the date : “+sdf.format(calendar.getTime())+” is : “+quarter);
Prints the following Result :
Quarter for the date : 04/10/2007 is : 2

Java – Code for getQuarter() function:
public static int getQuarter(Date date) {
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTime(date);
int year = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
int[] months = { 3, 6, 9, 12 };
int count = 0;
do {
calendar.set(year, months[count++], 1);
Date tempDt = calendar.getTime();
if(date.compareTo(tempDt)
return count;
} while(count
return 0;
}

Java – Find previous quarter begin and end dates for a given date:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat();
sdf.applyPattern(“MM/dd/yyyy”);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
Date processDate = sdf.parse(“4/10/2007″);
calendar.setTime(processDate);
Date date1 = calendar.getTime();
int quarter = TestDate.getQuarter(date1);
String currentQuarterBeginDate = “”;
String fromDt=”";
String toDt=”";
if ( quarter ==1){
currentQuarterBeginDate = “01/01/”+calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
}
if ( quarter ==2){
currentQuarterBeginDate = “04/01/”+calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
}
if ( quarter ==3){
currentQuarterBeginDate = “07/01/”+calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
}
if ( quarter ==4){
currentQuarterBeginDate = “10/01/”+calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
}
calendar.setTime(sdf.parse(currentQuarterBeginDate));
calendar.add(Calendar.MONTH, 3*-1);
fromDt = sdf.format(calendar.getTime());
String formmatedQuarterBeginDate = sdf.format(calendar.getTime());
calendar.setTime(new java.util.Date(formmatedQuarterBeginDate));
calendar.add(Calendar.MONTH, 3);
calendar.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, -1);
toDt = sdf.format(calendar.getTime());
System.out.println(“Previous Quarter Begin Date : “+fromDt);
System.out.println(“Previous Quarter End Date : “+toDt);

Prints the following Result :
Previous Quarter Begin Date : 01/01/2007
Previous Quarter End Date : 03/31/2007

Java – Find previous Date for a given date:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat();
sdf.applyPattern(“MM/dd/yyyy”);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
Date processDate = sdf.parse(“4/10/2007″);
calendar.setTime(processDate);
calendar.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, -1);
String previousDate = sdf.format(calendar.getTime());
System.out.println(“Previous Date is :”+previousDate);
Prints the following Result :
Previous Date is :04/09/2007

Java – Find previous Sunday for a given date:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat();
sdf.applyPattern(“MM/dd/yyyy”);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
Date processDate = sdf.parse(“4/24/2007″);
calendar.setTime(processDate);
int dayOfWeek = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
calendar.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,-1*(dayOfWeek-1));
calendar.setTime(calendar.getTime());
String endDt = sdf.format(calendar.getTime());
System.out.println(“Previous Sunday is :”+endDt);
Prints the following Result :
Previous Sunday is :04/22/2007
