Example
package com.w3spoint;
import java.time.LocalDate;
public class TestExample {
public static void main(String args[]){
LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
LocalDate yesterday = date.minusDays(1);
LocalDate tomorrow = yesterday.plusDays(2);
System.out.println("Today: "+date);
System.out.println("Yesterday: "+yesterday);
System.out.println("Tommorow: "+tomorrow);
LocalDate date1 = LocalDate.of(2018, 1, 16);
System.out.println(date1.isLeapYear());
LocalDate date2 = LocalDate.of(2016, 9, 23);
System.out.println(date2.isLeapYear());
