I'll give you a clue:
- Convert returned value to a number.
- num % 100 is the seconds.
- (num / 100) % 100 is the minutes.
- (num / 10000) is the hours.
- If the hours is less than 12, use AM
- If the hours is 12 or more, use PM and further, if its 13 or more, subtract 12.
Another way to do it is to treat it as a string. But then you have to add enough leading zeros to get to length 6 and then break it into 2 character bits and convert each to an 'int' and that's way more work than just mod-ing by 100 and diving by 100 and 10,000.
There should never be a value in those two digit sections greater than 59.
Note
@radi8 noticed something I left out. I should have noted that the "/" (division) in the above algorithm has to be integer arithmetic for it to work right. Some programming languages offer integer arithmetic. JavaScript does not.
Since JavaScript uses floating point arithmetic, he subtracts off the number of seconds before dividing. Then a similar subtraction of the number of minutes fixes the next step.
You could also use Math.floor()
after dividing to accomplish the same thing (since these are positive numbers).
Here is OP's code modified to do that:
$(function () {
var val1 = 41215,hr=0,min=0,sec=0;
sec = val1%100;
val1 = Math.floor(val1 / 100);
min = val1%100;
hr = Math.floor(val1 / 100);
// format the result. This example could show 1:1:1 instead of 01:01:01
tst2 = hr.toString()+':'+min.toString()+'.'+sec.toString();
alert(tst2.toString());
});
