Hi I googled this a fair amount now and cant really find a answer. Can someone point me in the right direction here :slight_smile: I’ve just got a date for when we will have a visit from the man who owns our company. We have a project that is suppose to be done by then… Would be cool to have so…

Yeah, when date and time is fixed just calc the difference to now and display this. I wouldn’t do milliseconds though I can take a look tonight

here is an example. Afaik there is now way to get the millis() from the computer as simple as you get the seconds(). (The command millis() doesn’t give you the millis() since the last second started but since the program started. I mean you could calculate the millisOfTheCurrentSecond roughly, but…

Hello @Teljemo , See my post: Difference between two times (measuring time) [image] Java.lang.System.currentTimeMillis() Method Java lang System currentTimeMillis() Method - The java.lang.System.currentTimeMillis() method returns the current time in milliseconds.The unit of time of the…

Hey Thx guys!!.. Something with me and timers lately… I have had Chrisir helping me A LOT and this type of counter, calculating difference between two times, is something that has been involved in that project also. I’m just not at that level that I can look at the huge code Chrisir has been writi…

[image] Teljemo: In the first example by Chrisir there is some math to get the dates. I will look at how the time formula is nf(…, 2) just makes a leading zero for second and months and so on so it’s 2020/09/15 and not 2020/9/15 same with time glv’s code is much better though

Hi, Provide me with a target date and your location (have to adjust for UTC) and I will guide you to update your code. This code was something I threw together as an exercise to use the System.currentTimeMillis(); it seems to work and I am using it as a countdown timer to my vacation. The line th…

[image] Teljemo: The date Im trying is may 26- 2020, time 09:00 that’s what he wrote It’s European Summer time afaik - CEST Central European Time Central European Time (CET) is a standard time of Central, and parts of Western Europe, which is one hour ahead of Coordinated Univers…

[image] Chrisir: glv’s code is much better though Thank you for the kind words; I really wanted to use System.currentTimeMillis() and was able to sort this out and had fun doing it. This was only a quick first pass at this and those can always be finessed; my first pass at code always shows…

@Teljemo Please run this and tell me what you are getting: println(System.currentTimeMillis()); I get: [image] And also the exact time from your location. :)

This code will work in Java mode and will work and takes into account local time zone for you. I don’t think it will work in JS mode, you would need to find an equivalent class as GregorianCalendar. I have left the code and variable names verbose to make the semantics clearer. I am sure someone wil…
