Hi Oscar, again I do apologize for my beginner mistakes, I've changed the code
taking in consideration some of your and MRAB suggestions.
Could you give me an example on how could I use the datetime.timedelta function
in this particular case.
This is my code:
def lap_average(lap1, lap2):
mins1, secs1, hundreths1 = lap1.split(":")
mins2, secs2, hundreths2 = lap2.split(":")
minutes = int(mins1) + int(mins2)
seconds = float(secs1) + float(secs2)
hundredths = int(60000 * minutes + 1000 * seconds)
hundredths = hundredths // 2
print hundredths
lap_average('03:40:00', '05:20:00')
lap_average('03:00:02', '02:00:00')
lap_average('02:25:50', '06:50:75')
lap_average('00:02:00', '00:03:00') #should output: 00:02:50
lap_average('00:02:20', '00:04:40') # 00:03:30
lap_average('02:40:40', '03:30:30') # etc
lap_average('02:60:30', '60:40:40')
Also I was a bit confused with what you said about :
"> total_seconds = int(secs1) + int(secs2) + int(mins1) * 60 + int(mins2) * 60
What happened to the hundredths in the line above. Surely you wanted
to add 0.01 * hundredths there."
I thought the above was already the entire time as hundredths of second??
