// Java program to demonstrate
// WeekFields.weekOfWeekBasedYear() method

import java.time.DayOfWeek;
import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.temporal.TemporalField;
import java.time.temporal.WeekFields;

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

        // create WeekFields
        WeekFields weekFields
            = WeekFields.of(DayOfWeek.MONDAY, 1);

        // apply weekOfWeekBasedYear()
        TemporalField weekOfWeekBasedYear
            = weekFields.weekOfWeekBasedYear();

        // create a LocalDate
        LocalDate day = LocalDate.of(2021, 12, 21);

        // get week of week for localdate
        int wow = day.get(weekOfWeekBasedYear);

        // print results
        System.out.println("Week of week for "
                           + day + " :" + wow);
    }
}

Output:
