Description

TIME(Hour, Minute, Second)

For Example,

TIME(2,30,54)

• In ZOS, time value is returned as 0.10479166666482342
• In Calci, time value is returned as 2:30:54 AM

• Calci displays the time considering a 24 hour clock from 0:00:00 (12:00:00 AM) to 23:59:59 (11:59:59 PM).
• The decimal output of time value is in the range from '0' to '0.99988426'. e.g. 12:00 PM is half of a day, represented as '0.5'.
• If $Hour$ >23, it is divided by 24 and the remainder is considered as hour value. e.g. TIME(30,00,00) = '5 AM' or '0.25'.
• If $Hour$ is negative, it is subtracted from 23:59:59 and displayed as hour value.
• If $Minute$ >59, it is converted into hours and minutes.
• If $Second$ >59, it is converted into hours, minutes and seconds.
• If any arguments are invalid, Calci returns an #ERROR message.
• If any argument is non-integer, it is truncated.
