Time Stamp

[odin607]

In C, and on a windows system, how would you place a timestamp on a file.

I just want the file I'm writing to, to look like this

numbers
more numbers
even more numbers
yet even more numbers
month/day/year

would be nice to be able to tell when the last time i ran the program was =)

Something like the following could do the job:

[code=c]
/* print all you numbers first */
...
/* print the time stamp */
fprintf(fd, ctime(time(NULL )));
[/code]

kind regards,

Jos

You should use time.h and all C related time functions are in that header file.
