Question

How to display date and time using strftime() in C

Answer 1

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

int main() {
    time_t curtime;
    time(&curtime);

    struct tm* tm = localtime(&curtime);

    // size_t strftime(char *str, size_t maxsize, const char *format, const struct tm *timeptr)

    // %D = date = %m/%d/%y"
    // %T = time = "%H:%M:%S"

    char buf[64];
    strftime(buf, 64, "%D - %T", tm);

    printf("%s", buf);

    return 0;
}
