month and year

[craig_phillips2]

how can i get the current month and year as int values using C programming methods as opposed to C++.

I cant use C++ because it is for a procedural programming assignment, not OO. I want to write them to my struct:

struct temp_rec
{
	int iYear;
	int iMonth;
	int iTemp;
	int iLoc;
	char* sLoc;
};

temp_rec trRec;

void get_temp()
{
	temp_rec* pRec = &trRec;
	char sVal[20];
	int iVal = 0;

	do{
		clrscr();
		printf("Please enter the location: ");
		gets(sVal);
		pRec->sLoc = sVal;
		if((iVal = get_loc_id(sVal)) == 0)
		{
			printf("Department ID not found!");
			do{
				printf("\nPlease enter Department ID: ");
				gets(sVal);
				iVal = atoi(sVal);
				printf("Debug iVal = %d",iVal);
				getch();
			}while((!chk_dept(iVal)) || iVal < 1)
		}
		pRec->iLoc = iVal;
		pRec->iYear = // The current year
		pRec->iMonth = // The current month
		printf("Please enter temperature: ");
		gets(sVal);
		iVal = atoi(sVal);
		printf("Debug iVal = %d",iVal);
		getch();
		printf("\n\nYou are about to add the following details:\n"
			"\nDepartment ID:   %d"
			"\nDepartment Name: %s"
			"\nTemperature:     %d"
			"\n\nTo be added for %s %d."
			"\n\nIs this information correct? ",
			pRec->iLoc,pRec->sLoc,pRec->iTemp,get_month(pRec->iMonth), pRec->iYear);
		gets(sVal);
  }while(!UCase(sVal[0]) == 'Y');
}

There are functions in the time.h header.

time_t time;
tm *pTime;

time(&time);
pTime = gmtime(&time);
pTime-> ...

tm is a struct that holds all values you want as fields.

#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
      struct tm *t;
      time_t lt;
      int year, month;
      lt = time(NULL);
      t = localtime(&lt);
      year = t->tm_year + 1900;
      month = t->tm_mon + 1;
      printf("year = %d month = %d \n",year,month);
      return 0;
