Write a C# Sharp program to convert the value of the current DateTime object to its equivalent short date string representation

public class Example34
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      DateTime dateToDisplay = new DateTime(2016, 8, 17, 8, 42, 50);
      CultureInfo originalCulture = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture;
      // Change culture to en-NZ.
      Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("en-NZ");
      Console.WriteLine("Displaying short date for {0} culture:", 
                        Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.Name);
      Console.WriteLine("   {0} (Short Date String)", 
                        dateToDisplay.ToShortDateString());
      // Display using 'd' standard format specifier to illustrate it is
      // identical to the string returned by ToShortDateString.
      Console.WriteLine("   {0} ('d' standard format specifier)", 
                        dateToDisplay.ToString("d"));
