You can find out how many seconds have elapsed since Jan 1, 1970 using the time() function.

#include now = time(NULL); // now is more than a billion seconds (which data type should you use?)

Write a program that estimates how many years, months, weeks, days, and hours have gone by since Jan 1 1970 by calculations with the number of seconds that have passed. The number of months must be less than 12, i.e., take out how many years have gone by first, then how many months are left, then weeks, etc.

Assume that all years have 365 days, and all months have 30.42 days.

The output should be a count down on the "current day" by displaying how many years, then months, then weeks, then days, and then hours have gone by since Jan. 1 1970.

So example output should read something like:

Since Jan. 1 1970

It's been 47 years, 5 months, 2 weeks, 6 days, and 11 hours
