Linux Timestamp: View in Terminal

In the Linux terminal, you can use the date command to view the current timestamp. The timestamp refers to the total number of seconds from the Greenwich Mean Time on January 1, 1970 (also known as the UNIX epoch) to the present. To view the current timestamp, simply enter the following command in the terminal:

date +%s

This will output the value of the current timestamp in seconds. If you need to display the timestamp in a different format, you can use different options with the `date` command. For example, to convert the timestamp into a readable date and time format, you can use the following command:

date -d @<timestamp>

The represents the value of a timestamp. This will display the timestamp value in a readable date and time format.
