Question

Exercise 3.3 Write a program that converts a total number of seconds to

hours, minutes, and seconds. It should (1) prompt the user for input, (2) read

an integer from the keyboard, (3) calculate the result, and (4) use printf to

display the output. For example, "5000 seconds = 1 hours, 23 minutes,

and 20 seconds".

Hint: Use the remainder operator.

I don't know how to use the remainder operator. Please help me

Answer 1

1st: it's not Java if you use printf. It's C ; I have already told you this once before

2nd: You have to understand the math. The remainder operator % gives you the remainder of the division, not the quotient. For example, 10 %3 = 1 because 1 is the remainder when 10 is divided by 3.

3rd: walks though the example so you understand the math...

5000 seconds is the input...

1 minute = 60 seconds; 1 hour = 60 minutes;

5000/60 = 83 with remainder 20 --> 83 min 20 sec

83 minutes = 83/60 hours = 1 hour 23 minutes

so final answer is 1 hour 23 minutes 20 seconds

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{

long lSeconds;

printf(" input # of seconds :>");

scanf("%ld",&lSeconds);

long lSec = lSeconds%60;

long lMinutes = lSeconds/60;

long lMin = lMinutes % 60;

long lHours = lMinutes/60;

printf(" %ld hr %ld min %ld sec \n",lHours,lMin,lSec);

return 0;

}
