Description of program:

This program helps you to convert the date into a string type. Firstly, you need to pass a date  in the parse() method which is  invoked through the DateFormat object . The format() method converts the date into a string. This method is defined as final in the DateFormat class. This is used to format a Date into a date/time string. The parameter passed is as date/time and it returns a string.

 Here is the code of program:

import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
public class DateToString {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 try {
 DateFormat formatter ; 
 Date date ;  
  formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yy");
  date = (Date)formatter.parse("11-June-07");  
  String s = formatter.format(date);
  System.out.println("Today is " + s);
  } catch (ParseException e)
  {System.out.println("Exception :"+e);  }  
 
 }
}
