Need some help combining RTC values into single int

I am trying to concatenate the year month and day from the RTC values of now.year(), now.month(), and now.day().

I want combine the now.year(), now.month(),now.day() to end up with "20180717"

If only there was some sort of math that would change 2018 to 20180000. If we had that then you could use that same math to change 7 to 700.

Of course you would also need some sort of math to merge those values. If only there was a way to merge three numbers like 20180000, 700, and 17 into 20180717.

If you could do all that then you could just print the final number.

When I use math like 10000 * now.year() I end up with -5088 which makes no sense at all as it should return 20180000

If only there was a way to get the normally 16 bit math to instead be done using 32 bit math.

Right after i replied I figured out that I need to use long and not int. Thank you for your help.

You are welcome.
