How to convert a time string to seconds?
For Python 2.7:
>>> import datetime>>> import time>>> x = time.strptime('00:01:00,000'.split(',')[0],'%H:%M:%S')>>> datetime.timedelta(hours=x.tm_hour,minutes=x.tm_min,seconds=x.tm_sec).total_seconds()60.0
A little more pythonic way I think would be:
timestr = '00:04:23'ftr = [3600,60,1]sum([a*b for a,b in zip(ftr, map(int,timestr.split(':')))])Output is 263Sec.
I would be interested to see if anyone could simplify it further.
without imports
time = "01:34:11"sum(x * int(t) for x, t in zip([3600, 60, 1], time.split(":")))
