- Synopsis:
- $tdiff(<seconds>)
- $tdiff2(<seconds>)
-
- Technical:
- This converts an integer value to a human-readable string showing the
- elapsed time in days, hours, minutes, and seconds. The only difference
- between the functions is that $tdiff2() is more compact. Negative
- numbers and decimals are permitted, though there probably isn't much use
- for them.
-
- Practical:
- This function is useful for showing how much time has elapsed since a
- particular event. For instance, it can convert your idle time from the
- number of seconds to a more readable form.
-
- Returns:
- human-readable string representing elapsed time
-
- Examples:
- $tdiff(248576) returns "2 days 21 hours 2 minutes 56 seconds"
- $tdiff2(248576) returns "2d 21h 2m 56s"
- $tdiff(-248576) returns "-2 days -21 hours -2 minutes -56 seconds"
- $tdiff2(-248576) returns "-2d -21h -2m -56s"
