\today
The \today
command produces today's date, in the format
‘month dd, yyyy’; for example, `July 4, 1976'.
It uses the predefined counters \day
, \month
, and
\year
(see \day \month \year) to do this. It is not
updated as the program runs.
The datetime
package, among others, can produce a wide variety
of other date formats.
