How to convert milliseconds into human readable form?
Well, since nobody else has stepped up, I'll write the easy code to do this:
x = ms / 1000
seconds = x % 60
x /= 60
minutes = x % 60
x /= 60
hours = x % 24
x /= 24
days = x
I'm just glad you stopped at days and didn't ask for months. :)
Note that in the above, it is assumed that /
represents truncating integer division. If you use this code in a language where /
represents floating point division, you will need to manually truncate the results of the division as needed.
Let A be the amount of milliseconds. Then you have:
seconds=(A/1000)%60
minutes=(A/(1000*60))%60
hours=(A/(1000*60*60))%24
and so on (%
is the modulus operator).
Hope this helps.
