How to obtain the current date in C language?

To obtain the current date in C language, you can use the functions in the time.h header file. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Include the header file: #include
2. Declare a variable of type time_t: time_t current_time;
3. Assign the current time to the variable current_time using the time function: time(&current_time);
4. Convert a time_t type time to a tm structure type using the localtime function: “`struct tm *local_time = localtime(&current_time);“`
5. Get the current year, month, and day using the members tm_year, tm_mon, and tm_mday of the tm structure type:
   int year = local_time->tm_year + 1900;
   int month = local_time->tm_mon + 1;
   int day = local_time->tm_mday;

By following the steps above, you can obtain the current year, month, and day information.
