Question

I am trying to understand how to manipulate the Gregorian Calendar so that I can convert my answer into a string format. What I'm hoping to do is to do is return string to a different file to add to a string in separate file (Object-oriented exercise between files), but once I can convert this into a string I can convert this file on my own. I added the System.out.println() to show what the results should look like.

In other words, I need to know the command funxs really for the conversion really.

import java.util.*;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
public class Calendar{
  
public static void main(String[] args) {
  
int year = 2017;
int day = 31;
int month = 4;
int hourOfDay = 3;
int minute = 45;
GregorianCalendar c2 = new GregorianCalendar(year,month,day, hourOfDay, minute);
System.out.println(c2.getTime());

}
}

so the string should look like => Tue May 29 02:32:00 EDT 2018.

Then I can recreate a file to return this string to another file to add to the string in the other file.
