How do I use type command to enter current date and time ?

Asked by cortneyd

I want to use the 'type ( )' command to put text on my screen that will show the current date and time (down to the second).
Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Thanks

I recommend paste() instead of type().

import datetime
t = datetime.datetime.today()

#Click on the input position of the date
paste(t.strftime("%Y/%m/%d"))

#Click on the input position of the time
paste(t.strftime("%H:%M:%S"))

Can you help with this problem?
