In this article, the task is to write a Python Program to print the current year, month, and day.
Approach:
- In Python, in order to print the current date consisting of a year, month, and day, it has a module named datetime. From the DateTime module, import date class
- Create an object of the date class
- Call the today( ) function of date class to fetch todays date.
- By using the object created, we can print the year, month, day(attribute of date class) of today.
Python3
# importing date class from datetime module from datetime import date # creating the date object of today's date todays_date = date.today() # printing todays date print ( "Current date: " , todays_date) # fetching the current year, month and day of today print ( "Current year:" , todays_date.year) print ( "Current month:" , todays_date.month) print ( "Current day:" , todays_date.day) |
Output:
Current date: 2020-12-10 Current year: 2020 Current month: 12 Current day: 10
