-- Get current Greenwich time
print(())

print(("%x", ()))

-- Get the string representation of the current time，Like：10:28:37
print(("%X", ()))

-- Get the string representation of the current time，Like：10/10/13 10:28:37
print(("%c", ()))

-- Get the string representation of the current time，Like：2013-10-10 10:28:37
print(("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S", ()))

--The function returns to execute the programCPUThe number of clock seconds spent
local x1 = ()
local s = 0
for i = 1, 10000000 do
s = s + i
end
local x2 = ()
print(("elapsed time: %.2f\n", x2 - x1))
local T2009_StartTime = { year=2013, month=2, day=9, hour=0, min=0, sec=0 }
local T2009_EndTime = { year=2013, month=2, day=17, hour=23, min=59, sec=59 }

T2009_AvtivityTime = { startTime = (T2009_StartTime), endTime = (T2009_EndTime) }

print('The event was successful with the event:' .. ('%c', T2009_AvtivityTime.startTime) ..
'~' .. ('%c', T2009_AvtivityTime.endTime))

temp = ("*t", ())
print(temp)
--[[A table will be generated
{year = 1998, month = 9, day = 16, yday = 259, wday = 4,
 hour = 23, min = 48, sec = 10, isdst = false}
