Special Characters

I have noticed that in some strings, certain characters appear that have special functions, like (if I am not mistaken) "%t", which I believe gives the current time. Could someone explain to me what the list of these special characters are, and, if possible, how Java understands and interprets them?

So I was looking to an answer for my question, and I believe I have an answer. If you create a "Date" Object (imported in Java.util), supposedly, that holds the current date and time. If you print it out, it prints the current date and time. Let me check to make sure.
