Hello.
I need help with a small problem I'm having.
I want to make a function which takes an integer representing some time
in milliseconds and returns the same time but formatted as
"hours:minutes:seconds,milliseconds" with leading zeros whenever possible.
E.g. I input 185804 to the function and it returns 00:03:05,804. The
function I'm using now is defined as:
def millisToFormat(millis):
try:
hours = millis / 3600000
mins = (millis - hours * 3600000) / 60000
secs = (millis - hours * 3600000 - mins * 60000) / 1000
millis = millis - hours * 3600000 - mins * 60000 - secs * 1000
hours = str(hours)
mins = str(mins)
secs = str(secs)
millis = str(millis)
if len(hours) == 1:
hours = "0"+hours
if len(mins) == 1:
mins = "0"+mins
if len(secs) == 1:
secs = "0"+secs
if len(millis) < 3:
millis = (len(millis) - 3) * "0" + millis
return str(hours) + ":" + str(mins) + ":" + str(secs) + "," +
str(millis)
except ValueError:
return -1
Note that I am very new to Python and the language I have been using
most prior to this is Java.
