C# Sharp DateTime: Exercise-5 with Solution

Write a C# Sharp program to get a DateTime value that represents the current date and time on the local computer.

Sample Solution:-

C# Sharp Code:

using System;
using System.Globalization;
public class Example5
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      DateTime localDate = DateTime.Now;
      DateTime utcDate = DateTime.UtcNow;
      String[] cultureNames = { "en-IE", "en-ZA", "fr-CA",
                                "de-CH", "ro-RO" } ;

      foreach (var cultureName in cultureNames) {
         var culture = new CultureInfo(cultureName);
         Console.WriteLine("{0}:", culture.NativeName);
         Console.WriteLine("   Local date and time: {0}, {1:G}",
                           localDate.ToString(culture), localDate.Kind);
         Console.WriteLine("   UTC date and time: {0}, {1:G}\n",
                           utcDate.ToString(culture), utcDate.Kind);
      }
   }
}
