Java program that prints the month name based on the input month serial number

Write a Java program that prints the month name based on the input month serial number (1 for January, 2 for February, ..., 12 for December) using a switch statement:

Solution

import java.util.Scanner;
public class MonthNameSwitch 
{
    public static void main(String[] args) 
	{
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter the month number (1-12): ");
        int monthNumber = sc.nextInt();
        String monthName;
        switch (monthNumber) 
		{
            case 1:
                monthName = "January";
                break;
            case 2:
                monthName = "February";
                break;
            case 3:
                monthName = "March";
                break;
            case 4:
                monthName = "April";
                break;
            case 5:
                monthName = "May";
                break;
            case 6:
                monthName = "June";
                break;
            case 7:
                monthName = "July";
                break;
            case 8:
                monthName = "August";
                break;
            case 9:
                monthName = "September";
                break;
            case 10:
                monthName = "October";
                break;
            case 11:
                monthName = "November";
                break;
            case 12:
                monthName = "December";
                break;
            default:
                monthName = "Invalid month number";
                break;
        }
        System.out.println("Month name for month number " + monthNumber + " is: " + monthName);
    }
}

Output

Enter the month number (1-12): 3

Month name for month number 3 is: March
