Getting data in seconds, want to calculate hours, minutes & seconds

Question

I'm getting a data which contains a certain number.

I need to find how many hours, minutes and seconds it stands for.

for example:

I'm getting the number 248 which means:

00 hours : 04 minutes : 08 seconds

Any ideas would be really apprieciated!

Answer 1

Determine hours, minutes and seconds like this:

int hours = (int) (time / 3600);
int minutes = ((int) (time / 60)) % 60;
int seconds = time % 60;

Alternatively, you can determine minutes like this once you know the hours:

int minutes = (int) ((time - hours * 3600) / 60));
