time and date related functions.


The following information gives a taste of the date and time related functions. It stikes me that this is overly complicated, but what do I know... To review all the functions available in the standard library, click here.


  Library:   time.h

  Prototype: char *asctime( const struct tm *time);
             char *ctime(const time_t *timer);
             struct tm *localtime(const time_t *timer);
             size_t strftime(char *s, 
          		     size_t maxsize, 
		   	     const *format,
	   		     const struct tm *time);

  Syntax:    

The prototype list does NOT list all the functions that are described in time.h - only the ones I have used and shown in the example that follows.

Example program.

Here is a time related problem.
