Date in int

[Scotty12]

I need a way of getting the date as integers from a computer.I can get:

char curDate[9];
	_strdate(curDate);
	cout << "The current date is  " << curDate  << " \n";

But is there a faster way of getting
int day
int month
int year

other can separating out the "/" and converting chars to int?

#include <ctime>

Use localtime() or another standard C library function which returns a struct tm containing int fields for day, month, year, etc.
