IsoEra

An era in the ISO calendar system.
The ISO-8601 standard does not define eras.
A definition has therefore been created with two eras - 'Current era' (CE) for
years on or after 0001-01-01 (ISO), and 'Before current era' (BCE) for years before that.
year-of-era |
era |
proleptic-year |
2 | CE | 2 |
1 | CE | 1 |
1 | BCE | 0 |
2 | BCE | -1 |
Do not use ordinal()
to obtain the numeric representation of IsoEra
.
Use getValue()
instead.

Each era has a proleptic-year mapping. `getValue()` provides the numeric representation; avoid using `ordinal()`. `IsoEra` extends `Enum` and implements `Era`, providing methods for temporal adjustments, value retrieval, and comparisons. It uses methods like `get()`, `getLong()`, and `isSupported()`.\n"]]
