Input time in seconds-output in hours, minutes, seconds

1 New Member
I would like to ask for some help with this assignment as i don't know how to start it.

Write a C++ program that prompts the user to input the elapsed time for an event in seconds. The program then outputs the elapsed time in hours, minutes, and seconds. (for example, if the elapsed time is 9630 seconds, then the output is 2:40:30.)

Can anyone pls help me!!
Im using visual studio
Thanks to those who help me and have the patience to read.

Think about the math involved. How will you convert seconds into minutes? Minutes into hours? How will you know how to get the leftovers?

Once you answer these questions you will be able to easily convert these steps into C++.

Note: You will likely use the division operator / and the modulus division operator % frequently.

I have a process, and my process wants to wait for input but only for a certain amount of time. The input might be coming from a Python file object (created with popen) or a TCP socket. What I want is something like: s = getTimedInput(source, maxDelay) where: source = the source of the input

I have a little code to add multiple items to a shopping cart based page. This code works perfect, but it adds all of the info to the same input fields every time it loops. I need it to change the input names each time it loops. Here is the code. <% FOR x = 0 TO UBOUND( localCart, 2 ) IF localCart( CARTPID, x ) <> "" THEN orderTotal = orderTotal + ( localCart( CARTPPRICE, x ) * localCart ( CARTPQUANTITY, x ) )

With the following code I am trying to simply set and display the current date time in an input box. The input box will not accept a variable that contains any spaces (i.e., a space between date and time). It works if I hardcode a date time, but I need the current date time. The code also works as long as it is not within an input box (see 3rd line below) <tr><td align="right"><strong>Start Time:</strong></td><td align="left"><input...

Hi all, Hopefully something simple here. I have written a form that takes data from a text box and updates it into an Access database. However, I want to also pass the local user date and time using date() and time() JavaScript commands, but can't find the right syntax to put them in the input command, example: <input name=date value="<javascript command here">

Please forgive, I have looked at so much info I can't figure out how to put it together even though I know it must be fairly simple. I have an array of input text boxes (txtDOBn) where n is created at load. On the onchange event I want to calc the age and show in adjacent input text boxes that are readonly and also arrays (an age calced for each DOB entered). I was going to use the datediff function in vbscript to do the calc. Can...

I'm working on a subform where users put in 24-hour time. On their paper forms, they've been accustomed to referring to midnight as 24:00 (instead of as 0:00, which kind of makes sense from a human point of view, though it's still wrong, as it puts midnight as the end of the previous day instead of the beginning of the next, but it avoids the zero time problem). I have an input mask to put the : in the time, but when you input 24:00, it...

Hello all, As stated in another message, it's been a long time since I've done any C coding and I'm not feeling comfortable that I'm doing this correctly. Basically, I'd like to verify that my supplied input is alphanumeric. White space and opening/closing parenthesis are also permitted. Nothing more, nothing less. Additionally, despite having read my documentation for scanf(), I'm uncertain how --if it's even possible-- to have a...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
