## Timestamps
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Timestamps in LIGO, or in Michelson in general are available in smart contracts, while bakers baking the block (including the transaction in a block) are responsible for providing the given current timestamp for the contract.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Current time
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can obtain the current time using the built-in syntax specific expression, please be aware that it's up to the baker to set the current timestamp value.

### Timestamp arithmetic
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In LIGO, timestamps can be added with `int`(s), this enables you to set e.g. time constraints for your smart contracts like this:

const in_24_hrs: timestamp = today + one_day;

### Comparing timestamps
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can also compare timestamps using the same comparison operators as for numbers:

|
const not_tommorow: bool = (now = in_24_hrs)
|
||
|
|
```

## Addresses
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`address` is a LIGO datatype used for Tezos addresses (tz1, tz2, tz3, KT1, ...).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here's how you can define an address:

|
||
|
|
```pascaligo
|
||
|
|
const my_account: address = ("tz1KqTpEZ7Yob7QbPE4Hy4Wo8fHG8LhKxZSx": address);
|
||
|
|
```
