       int outp3 = mycal.getLeastMaximum(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
      System.out.println("The Least Maximum (Day) is: " + outp3);
      mycal.add(Calendar.YEAR, 2020);
       mycal.add(Calendar.MONTH, 9);
        mycal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, 23);
         System.out.println(" Date :" + mycal.getTime() );
      int outp11 = mycal.getLeastMaximum(Calendar.YEAR);
      System.out.println("The Least Maximum (Year) is: " + outp11);
       int outp21 = mycal.getLeastMaximum(Calendar.MONTH);
      System.out.println("The Least Maximum (Month)  is: " + outp21);
       int outp31 = mycal.getLeastMaximum(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
      System.out.println("The Least Maximum (Day) is: " + outp31);
