to get help in the cpp just get help on date

the date structure has just 3 items,day month and year.
there are in built functions to get current date
the following code will fill the structure item d1 with the current system date.

date d1;
getdate(&d1);
cout<<d1.da_year<<d1.da_day<<d1.da_mon;//display date

date d1; getdate(&d1); cout<<d1.da_year<<d1.da_day<<d1.da_mon;//display date

to know more about each data item in struct date just get help from your cpp program.
