How to print the current date and time

In this blog post, I will be demonstrating how you can print the current date and time.   Consider the following code snippet: import java.util.Calendar;public class PrintCurrentDateTimeDemo {public static void main(String[] args) {Date date = new Date();System.out.println("Current date and time is "+date);}}   Here, we are using a  java.util.Date instance .   This represents a particular instance in time. When we create a new Date object with the default constructor, it creates a Date object with the current date and time. The Sysout statement then prints the Date and time in this date object. So this code prints the following output: Current date and time is Mon Feb 25 09:31:36 IST 2019
