Milliseconds to seconds?

[megaman54]

How to covert milliseconds to seconds?

[JR10]

ms / 1000.

[megaman54]

What function is that?

[JR10]

What?

Just divide the milliseconds.

milliseconds / 1000

Yes, but i need the script to calculate it. I mean, i type a command like this: /calc then it outputs that in seconds. What function should i use for this?

[JR10]

Dude, I said divide it.

Milliseconds / 1000 

[NotAvailable]

Mhm...

Use tonumber to get the specified amount.

Then calculate it

[megaman54]

Ahh, i dont really understand so i must make a example..

So its like this? :

function calcMsecs(player, command, mSecs) 
seconds = tonumber(mSecs) / 1000 
outputChatBox(seconds, player) 
end 
addCommandHandler("msecs", calcMsecs) 

[NotAvailable]

Don't ask me, i suck at Math

[JR10]

function convertMSToSeconds ( MS ) 
local seconds = tonumber ( MS ) / 1000 
return seconds 
end 

What you did is correct too.

[megaman54]

Thanks again !

[JR10]

You welcome.

or

  
function MsToSeconds( MS ) 
local seconds = tonumber ( MS ) * 1000 
return seconds 
end 
  
setTimer( function, MsToSeconds( 50 ), 1 ) 
  

[karlis]

or

  
function MsToSeconds( MS ) 
local seconds = tonumber ( MS ) * 1000 
return seconds 
end 
  
setTimer( function, MsToSeconds( 50 ), 1 ) 
  

seriusly, wtf is that?

[JR10]

or

  
function MsToSeconds( MS ) 
local seconds = tonumber ( MS ) * 1000 
return seconds 
end 
  
setTimer( function, MsToSeconds( 50 ), 1 ) 
  

Wrong calculation, and setTimer arguments are wrong.

[Cadu12]

MsToSeconds( 50 ) return 50000

setTimer for i dont have function name, then i can use "function" name

[JR10]

Then it should be:

SecondsToMS

And setTimer is still wrong.

should be:

function SecondsToMS( Seconds ) 
local MS = tonumber ( Seconds ) * 1000 
return MS 
end 
setTimer( function ( ) outputChatBox("test") end, SecondsToMS( 5) , 1 ) 

[50p]

There is no need for new variable, simply return the results:

function ms2sec( ms ) 
    return ms / 1000; 
end 
  
function sec2ms( sec ) 
    return sec * 1000; 
end 

This is all simple maths.

Why would you even use a function for something simple like this? I'm going to nominate this topic as the longest for a too simple question of 2011

[eAi]

Oh god.

[qaisjp]

Why would you even use a function for something simple like this? I'm going to nominate this topic as the longest for a too simple question of 2011

I don't know.. maybe to prevent doing this:

(6000/1000)+(1200/1000)+(201*1000)+ (6120/1000)+(1234/1003)+(291*1000)+2 

when you could do functions to avoid the brackets...but meh D:

eAi - WHO GOD D:

this would look as ugly as now if u would have to call the func for all of them.
