Double method problem

[i2aven420]

Hello, this is my 1st time posting here. I'm enrolled in a CIS course through devry. This is my assignment:

Design a C# solution with a Main ( ) method that holds an integer variable named seconds to which you will assign a value. Create a method to which you pass this value. The method displays the seconds in minutes and seconds. As an example 66 seconds is 1 minute and 6 seconds.

Add a second method to the solution. This method displays a passed argument as hours, minutes and seconds. For example 3666 seconds is 1 hour, 1 minute and 6 seconds.

Add a statement to the Main ( ) method so that after it calls the methods to convert seconds to minutes and seconds, it passes the same value to the new method to convert it to hours, minutes and seconds

I'm getting an error in the Sub method stating that an identifier is expected. This is what i've coded so far:

using System;
public class convertingSeconds
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        string secondsString;
        int minutes, seconds, hours;
        Console.Write("Please enter the ammount of seconds you would like calculated");
        secondsString = Console.ReadLine();
        seconds = Convert.ToInt32(secondsString);
        hours = Seconds / 3600;
        minutes = Seconds / 60;
        minutes = minutes % hours;
        using (TimeSpan = t)
        seconds = t.seconds;
        minutes = t.minutes;
        hours = t.hours;
        secondsString = t.secondsString;
        Sub(t);
    }
    public static void Sub(t)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("{0} seconds is,{1} minutes, {2} seconds", t.secondsString, t.minutes, t.seconds);
        Console.ReadLine();
        Console.WriteLine("{0} seconds is {1} hours, {2} minutes, {3} seconds", t.secondsString, t.hours, t.minutes, t.seconds);
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
 

Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

You need to put an identifier type in the Sub definition. The compiler doesn't konw what type of variable t is. Try this:

public static void Sub( TimeSpan t)

A couple more hints:

C# is case sensitive - make sure variables are cased properly

The variable you're assigning to goes on the left. The statement
seconds = t.seconds;
will copy the value out of t.seconds and put it into the variable seconds, which appears to be the opposite of what you want.

A Using statement creates a variable then throws it away automatically when that variable goes out of scope. Since you have no { and } around the lines after the Using statement, that means it has a scope of 1 line (the one immediately following). Put { and } around everything that needs to use the t variable.

good luck
