Question

Java:

I'm attempting to take a time value in seconds, namely 8732 seconds, and convert it into hr:min:sec format. This is what I have so far. Ideas? I'm sort of lost.

public class Time {
public static void main(String args[]){
int total_seconds = 8732;
int total_minutes = total_seconds / 60;
int hours = total_minutes / 60;
int minutes = total_minutes - hours * 60;

System.out.println(hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds);

}}

Answer 1

Note that I have yet to define "seconds" in my s.o.p

Answer 2

Disregard, solved

//Seconds we need to divide between hours, min, and sec
int total_seconds = 8732;

//The number of whole minutes in our 8732 seconds
int total_minutes = total_seconds / 60;

//The number of whole hours in our total_minutes
int hours = total_minutes / 60;

//
int minutes = total_minutes - hours * 60;
int seconds_accounted_for = (hours * 60) * 60 + minutes * 60;
int seconds = total_seconds - seconds_accounted_for;

System.out.println(hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds);
