install timer python code example

Example 1: how to make a timer in python

import time
import sys

time_start = time.time()
seconds = 0
minutes = 0

while True:
    try:
        sys.stdout.write("\r{minutes} Minutes {seconds} Seconds".format(minutes=minutes, seconds=seconds))
        sys.stdout.flush()
        time.sleep(1)
        seconds = int(time.time() - time_start) - minutes * 60
        if seconds >= 60:
            minutes += 1
            seconds = 0
    except KeyboardInterrupt, e:
        break

Example 2: python timer

import time
import os

a = int(0)
b = int(0)

while True:
    print(str(b) + " minutes " + str(a) + " seconds")
    a += 1
    time.sleep(0.9999999)
    if a == 59:
        a = 0
        b += 1
    os.system('cls')
