Im creating a contact list program and need to beable to record when the contact was created and list the contacts according to their creation date. 

what can i use to give a variable a date? i know the time.h file has something inside, but i dont know how to use it with less code as possible. 

perhaps 

```
time.h seconds = timeStamp;

```

?

if this is the way, then what would the output be? and whats the best way to output it in order? this variable will be part of a class.
