I want to get the ratio of one TimeSpan against another TimeSpan (Basically the progress of a playing video from it's total time). My current methods is to get the milliseconds of the two TimeSpan objects and divide one against the other. Something like:
int durationInMilliseconds = totalTimeSpan.Milliseconds;
int progressInMilliseconds = progressTimeSpan.Milliseconds;
Double progressRatio = progressInMilliseconds / durationInMilliseconds;
Is there a more direct route? It's a simple problem and i'm just curious if there is a super elegant way to solve it.
Cheers all James
double progressRatio = progressTimeSpan.Ticks / (double)totalTimeSpan.Ticks;
You must cast one to a double, otherwise C# will do integer division. Ticks is better than the TotalMilliseconds because that is how it is stored and avoids any conversion.
You should use either Ticks or TotalMilliseconds , depending on the required precision. Milliseconds is the number of milliseconds past the current second.
As for a better solution, it doesn't get simpler than a division so your current solution is fine (minus the bug).
TimeSpan
gained several new operators with the release of .NET Core 2.0 :
public TimeSpan Divide(double divisor);
public double Divide(TimeSpan ts);
public TimeSpan Multiply(double factor);
public static TimeSpan operator /(TimeSpan timeSpan, double divisor);
public static double operator /(TimeSpan t1, TimeSpan t2);
public static TimeSpan operator *(double factor, TimeSpan timeSpan);
public static TimeSpan operator *(TimeSpan timeSpan, double factor);
Of note, a TimeSpan
can now be divided by another TimeSpan
:
var a = new TimeSpan(10, 0, 0);
var b = new TimeSpan(0, 30, 0);
var c = new TimeSpan(0, 4, 30);
Console.WriteLine(a / b);
// Displays: "20"
Console.WriteLine(b / c);
// Displays: "6.66666666666667"
Make use of extension method can make codes more readable.
public static double DividedBy(this TimeSpan x, TimeSpan y)
{
return Convert.ToDouble(x.Ticks) / y.Ticks;
}
