// Scala program to print the current date and time
// using Date class

import java.util.Date;

    println("Current and time: \n" + dateObj);
  }
}

Explanation:

Here, we used an object-oriented approach to create the program. And, we imported the Date class using the below statement,

import java.util.Date;

Then we created a singleton object Sample and defined the main() function. The main() function is the entry point for the program.

In the main() function, we created an object dateObj of the Date class and then printed the current time using the dateObj object on the console screen.
