Solution for Exercise 21-3

ex2103

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

int main()
{
    time_t tictoc;

    time(&tictoc);
    printf("The time is now %s",ctime(&tictoc));
    return(0);
}

Output

The time is now Mon May 18 13:54:31 2020

Notes

* As with the time() function, you must pass the address of the time_t variable to the ctime() function, shown at Line 9 above.

* The string returned by ctime() is terminated with a newline (followed by the null character, natch), which is why the newline character isn't included in the printf() format string.
