Idiom #61 Get current date

Assign to the variable d the current date/time value, in the most standard type. 

import datetime
d = datetime.datetime.now()
extern crate time;
let d = time::now();

The current time in the local timezone in this format: http://doc.rust-lang.org/time/time/struct.Tm.html
use std::time::SystemTime;
let d = SystemTime::now();
import "time"
d := time.Now()

The type Time wraps a timestamp with nanosecond precision.
