[edit] TimeSpan Seconds Property

The TimeSpan Seconds property simply returns the Seconds field in the TimeSpan object. It returns an int which means it can return negative and positive values.


  • The Seconds property will only return values between 0 - 59

[edit] Syntax

object.Seconds()

[edit] Example 1:

using System;
class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
        DateTime then = new DateTime(2004, 12, 3, 4, 34, 12, 127);
        TimeSpan diff = now - then;
        Console.WriteLine(diff.Seconds.ToString());
        Console.Read();
    }
}

Output:

51


The code simply subtracts the now date from the then date and it returns a timespan value. Then the diff object is used to extract the Seconds part from the TimeSpan object.

  • Note: This does not return the total Seconds from a timspan object.
