system time

How can I get the system time , is it in time.h
is there a way to get the date
thanx

> is it in time.h
like ctime() and strftime() perhaps

Most functions in the standard .h files have an associated manual page.

Reading a .h file, and skimming the manual pages would be a good idea. You won't remember the detail, but you will remember seeing something, and know roughly where to start looking for the detail when you next need it.

Try this:

Code:

#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void main( void )
{
   time_t ltime;

   time( &ltime );
   printf( "The time is %s\n", ctime( &ltime ) );
}
