Printing out current date - c

Question

Implement a function that determines and prints out the current year, month and day. For example:
Today is 03/04/2014.
Code so far that I have:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int main ()
{
int days, weeks, months, years, option, rmd, currentyear, currentmonth;
int daysinjan, daysinfeb, daysinmarch;
time_t seconds;
seconds = time(NULL);
days = seconds/(60*60*24);
weeks = seconds/((60*60*24)*7);
rmd=seconds%31557600;
months = ((seconds/31557600) * 12)+(((float)rmd/31557600)*12);
years = days/(365.25);
currentyear = 1970 + years;
currentmonth = (((float)rmd/31557600)*12)+1;
printf("%ld/%ld", currentmonth,currentyear);
return 0;
}
Please do not mind all the useless stuff in the code, this question is part of a project and i simply used the code from my previous question to try and work with that code in order to solve this question. The problem i have is that i cannot print the current day of the month that it is, because of this i feel that i have gone about this question wrongly.

Answer 1

This uses standard library calls to do all the math for you.
From Here:
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define SIZE 256
int main (void)
{
char buffer[SIZE];
time_t curtime;
struct tm *loctime;
/* Get the current time. */
curtime = time (NULL);
/* Convert it to local time representation. */
loctime = localtime (&curtime);
/* Print out the date and time in the standard format. */
fputs (asctime (loctime), stdout);
/* Print it out in a nice format. */
strftime (buffer, SIZE, "Today is %A, %B %d.\n", loctime);
fputs (buffer, stdout);
strftime (buffer, SIZE, "The time is %I:%M %p.\n", loctime);
fputs (buffer, stdout);
return 0;
}
If you wanted to create this as a function to return a string, you could do it like this:
char * getTimeString (char *str)
{
//replace this comment with relevant code from above with (at least) two additional lines:
strcpy(str, buffer);
return str;
}
Call it like this:
int main(void)
{
char *timeStr;
timeStr = malloc(30);//sufficient length to accept values assigned in getTimeString()
printf("%s\n", getTimeString(timeStr);
free(timeStr);
return 0;
}

Answer 2

#include <time.h> // for time_t
#include <stdio.h> // for printf
int main () {
int days, weeks, months, years, option, rmd, currentyear, currentmonth;
int daysinjan, daysinfeb, daysinmarch;
time_t seconds;
seconds = time(NULL);
days = seconds/(60*60*24);
weeks = seconds/((60*60*24)*7);
rmd=seconds%31557600;
months = ((seconds/31557600) * 12)+(((float)rmd/31557600)*12);
years = days/(365.25);
currentyear = 1970 + years;
currentmonth = (((float)rmd/31557600)*12)+1;
printf("%ld/%ld", currentmonth,currentyear);
return 0;
}
