Â
public ChronoLocalDate minus(TemporalAmount amountTosubtract)
Parameters: This method accepts one single parameter amountTosubtract which is the amount to subtract, It should not be null.
Return value: This method returns ChronoLocalDate based on this date-time with the subtraction made, not null.

        // create a ChronoLocalDate object        ChronoLocalDate zonedlt            = LocalDate.parse("2018-12-06");Â
        // subtract 30 Days to ChronoLocalDate        ChronoLocalDate value            = zonedlt.minus(Period.ofDays(30));Â
        // print result        System.out.println("ChronoLocalDate after"                           + " subtracting Days: "                           + value);    }} |
