    Would somebody please be so kind to make a small program for me?

    Yo guys

    I have a problem (big/small, you choose).
    I have to code a little app but I'm stuck with some math thing.
    Here's what i want to do.

    The app has to calculate the time the horses had to have to run 1000m.
    Let's give an example.

    A horse has run 1800m and his time was 2m 30s and 5ms.
    That makes a total of 120 + 30 = 150 seconds.

    That's the time for 1800m
    Now i need to time for 1000m.

    After that, you still have the time in seconds.
    And now this has to be converted back to minutes and seconds.

    And that's the time i need.

    Let's give an example.

    Distance: 2350m
    Total time: 3065 (3m, 6s, 5ms)
    SOLUTION: Kilometertime: 1.19.4

    Another one

    Distance: 1800m
    Total time: 2352
    Kilometertime: 1.26.2

    I would be very happy if somebody could code that for me.
    I would be really gratefull if I recieved the source code (coding language doesn't matter) , so i could modify it to my needs.

    I'm very sorry if I posted this in the wrong section...

    Greetings

    Welcome to Froums, Koetje!


    No to disappoint you but we don't write programs for anybody - we are here to help (if time permits) but you will also have to show us some effort.
    That's the only way you can learn.

    So, to make it short start doing simple things and ask any question you wish if you get lost...


    Good luck.
