[Questain] Print date

How do i print a date in a program
im making a news program and i need to know how to get the date to print it in the code!

What do you mean by date? The actual real life date? You can't get it in the computer. However, you could use http to get it from some time server or something.

how would i use the http to get it? or like can get the game time?

You can get the time of the day (in-game time) using os.time(). If you need the real date, you need to get it using http. I think there's a program for this in the program library.

it wont give me am or pm it gives me "14.95"
i need it to say am or pm is it in military time?

The wiki is your friend, always remember that :)/>/> (Hint: look for formatTime)

Thanks
