Python How To Print Current Time

Python How To Print Current Time – Many programs rely on the accurate machine time, such as the make command in UNIX.
Your machine time may be different and need synchronizing with another time server in your network.
In order to synchronize your machine time with one of the Internet time servers, you can write
a Python client for that. For this, ntplib will be used. Here, the client/server conversation will
be done using Network Time Protocol (NTP). If ntplib is not installed on your machine, you
can get it from PyPI with the following command using pip or easy_install:

 

pip install ntplib

So now this is the complete code for Python How To Print Current Time

 

We create an instance of NTPClient and then we call the request() method on it by passing the NTP server address.

 

Run the complete code this will be the result

How it works

Here, an NTP client has been created and an NTP request has been sent to one of the Internet
