[davie_scotland]

Hi, I was looking for a bit of help. I'm just starting to learn C and as part of my course I'm to produce a menu driven system to hold race times and competitor details. I'm struggling a bit on several aspects of. I was wondering if anyone could help me to display the current time and date on some of the screens of my menu. I am using the printf function to display text i would be very grateful for any help Cheers Davie

[Prelude]

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

int main(void)
{
  time_t now;
  time(&now);

  printf("%s", ctime(&now));

  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
