I have a row of times in hms format (from lubridate). For example,
begin = "12H 18M 48.58S"
ending = "12H 21M 1.4S"
If I do ending - begin, it returns:
"3M -47.18S"
While this is correct, I would prefer the answer in seconds, so that I can use this value later as a numeric (to add to other values in the column I am hoping to build), and use in figures.
I want to find the time, in seconds, between these two times. I have tried,
as.duration(ending - start), and the following error comes up:
Error in sprintf("%ds (~%s %ss)", x, x2, unit, "s)") :
invalid format '%d'; use format %f, %e, %g or %a for numeric objects
Any help would be much appreciated!
