The parse(CharSequence text) method of the MonthDay class in Java is used to get an instance of MonthDay from a text string. Syntax:
public static MonthDay parse(
    CharSequence text)
Parameters: This method accepts text as parameter to parse. Return value: This method returns the parsed month-day. Exceptions: This method throws DateTimeParseException if the text cannot be parsed. Below programs illustrate the parse(CharSequence text) method of MonthDay in Java: Program 1: Java
// Java program to demonstrate
// MonthDay.parse(CharSequence text) method

import java.time.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // apply parse(CharSequence text) method
        // of MonthDay class
        MonthDay monthday = MonthDay.parse(
            "--05-09");

        // print both month and day
        System.out.println("MonthDay: "
                           + monthday);
    }
}
Output:
MonthDay: --05-09
Program 2: Java
// Java program to demonstrate
// MonthDay.parse(CharSequence text) method

import java.time.*;
import java.time.temporal.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // apply parse(CharSequence text) method
        // of MonthDay class
        MonthDay monthday = MonthDay.parse(
            "--05-09");

        // print only month
        System.out.println("Month: "
                           + monthday.getMonth());
    }
}
