guess you mean minutes instead of seconds?
Hi, no I do mean seconds if you are referring to the constant, 29,476.8
I have readjusted it now so it is the correct value.
I believe you are always rounding up to the next highest integer rather than rounding to the nearest integer. In other words, you are using the ceil() function, not the round() function.
Hi Rick, yes you are quite right. I have made the correction as above. Thanks for your valuable input.

I believe your second test case is incorrectly rounding.
Yes, you were right with my earlier incorrect "note well" remark but now with corrected remark in place this test is valid. Sorry if it has put you off a bit. I guess other issues may come to light as well but I hope not.
