date
If you use Linux its hard to get one anywhere else... All kidding aside, the date command is used to print the current date and time (such as day of week, month, day of month, time, timezone, and year).
The time command is used to time a command and not display the actual time. To display the time and date, the date command must be used.
With command date option -s
To set the time and date in Linux via the command line, you can use the timedatectl command. For example, to set the date and time to "2023-10-31 14:30:00," you would run sudo timedatectl set-time '2023-10-31 14:30:00'. Additionally, you can check the current settings with timedatectl and ensure the system clock is synchronized if needed. Remember that changes may require superuser permissions.

In DOS, you can use the date command to display or set the current date, and the time command to display or set the current time. To see the current date and time along with the weekday, you can use the echo command combined with the %date% and %time% environment variables. For example, you can enter echo %date% %time% to display the current date and time.
Virtually all Linux distributions will accept the "halt" command. Some also have a shutdown command, though this has additional parameters and is meant mainly to shut down the system at a certain time.
The date and time are set in most Unix systems with the 'date' command. The exact syntax can vary, in which case you can find out by using the 'man date' command. Note: you have to be a root level user to issue this command to change the date or time.
You can schedule jobs using cron and the /etc/crontab file, or you can use the "at" command
Most systems obtain their time and date by reading from the Real Time Clock (RTC) at bootup, and then auto-incrementing the system clock after that. To change the system clock in a Unix or Linux system, issue a command like:date -s "1 JAN 1970 00:00:00"where the date is January 1, 1970, at 12:00 midnight.
