From your post it appears that you are running Linux/Unix, right? You are writing a bash script? If this is so, study the bash man page: man bash - that should provide you enough information to get started. We don't do your homework for you, but will help you sort out your problems once you have made a reasonable attempt to solve the problem and write the code.
FWIW (this is a hint), to write the data to the appropriate file name means you need to use the "date" command to format the date+time properly in order to generate the file name, and you will need to understand how backquoted commands work in bash.
