I have a helper function that turns minutes into hours/mins. I currently have it in my layout.cshtml but each page cannot see the function. Where should I put the helper function such that every page can see it?
@helper DisplayElapsedTime(int timeInMins){ String timeStr = ""; if (timeInMins >= 60) { int hours = timeInMins/60; timeInMins -= hours * 60; timeStr = hours + "h "; } if (timeInMins > 0){ timeStr += timeInMins + "m"; } @timeStr; }
