Hello, I am trying to report on the differences in time between two events. To do so seems straightforward enough. Take
eventA = _time (of event A)
eventB = _time (of event B)
TimeDifference = strftime((EpochTime(event A) - EpochTime(event B)) , "%H:%M:%S")
The time between events occurs pretty reliably every 30 minutes or so, as reflected in the logs. Yet, in my reports, I'm getting values like 30 hours. My first assumption would be that I mixed the Hours and Minutes up, but I haven't. Is there something wrong with my approach for finding the time difference? I am baffled.
Thanks for your time.
Time difference is calculated as duration
which is typically in seconds. So try this
TimeDifference = tostring((EpochTime(event A) - EpochTime(event B)) , "duration")

That works, i'm getting my expected value. Thanks!
I still don't see why strftime
doesn't apply towards this, though.
Thanks for your reply. Why wouldn't strftime work? Seems like that should be the way to go according to the documentation.
