The input is expressed by a real number in the format **HH.MMSS**, where: * **HH** are the hours; * **MM** are the minutes; * **SS** are the seconds. It is not mandatory that **MM** or **SS** are less than 60. In fact, they can be up to 99: in any case ''HMS→'' will compute the correct result. An useful consequence derives from this property: the sequence ''HMS→'' ''[[manual:chapter6:system:cmd_tohms|→HMS]]'' can be used to normalize a time value so that both **MM** and **SS** are less than 60. </callout> <callout type="warning" icon="true" title="Compatibility"> ---- ''HMS→'' is not fully equivalent to its **userRPL** counterpart. In particular: * in **userRPL** the time value can express fractions of seconds too; in **newRPL** it is not allowed. </callout> <callout type="info" icon="true" title="Usage"> ---- **__Input__** <code> 4: 3: 2: 1: 15.30 ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… HMS→ </code> \\ **__Output__** <code> 4: 3: 2: 1: 15.5 ………………………………………………………………………………………………………… </code> </callout> <callout color="darkgray" icon="fa fa-hand-o-right" title="Related Commands"> ---- {{page>manual:chapter6:system&nofooter&noeditbtn&inline}} </callout> manual/chapter6/system/cmd_fromhms.txt Last modified: 2021/09/22 15:14by jojo1973
