How can the name of the current node or computer be determined in the Windows operating system?

In Windows, you can obtain the current node (computer) name using various methods. One simple way is to use the hostname command in the command line or PowerShell:

hostname

In Python scripts, you can get the hostname like this:

import socket

hostname = socket.gethostname()
print(hostname)

Also, in PowerShell, you can use:

$env:COMPUTERNAME

This is an environment variable that contains the computer name.
