<h2>Date and Time APIs</h2>
<p>The Date and Time APIs provide support for working with date and time values.
Using these APIs, you can do the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Access the current date and time</li>
<li>Adjust the current time of your system</li>
<li>Determine if a time adjustment is currently in progress</li>
<li>Convert date and time values from one format to another format</li>
<li>Retrieve information related to time zone descriptions</li>
</ul>
<p>The date and time APIs include:</p>
<!-- ***** NOTE ***** Do not manually update text or links in this section. -->
<!-- Updates made in this section *will* be overlaid by automated tools -->
<!-- Notify User Technologies of needed updates to be made in XML for API finder.-->
