Detailed explanation-2: -The TODAY function takes no arguments; it is entered with empty parentheses. When you enter the TODAY function in a cell, it will display the current date. Each time the worksheet is recalculated or opened, the date will be updated.

Detailed explanation-5: -Sometimes when we want to display the current date and time in a worksheet, we can use the NOW function. The date and time will update whenever the worksheet is recalculated or opened. To do that, we need to just insert the formula =NOW() in the cell where the current date and time should appear.
