Basically I have the inverse of this problem: Python Time Seconds to h:m:s
I have a string in the format H:MM:SS (always 2 digits for minutes and seconds), and I need the integer number of seconds that it represents. How can I do this in python?
For example:
- “1:23:45” would produce an output of 5025
- “0:04:15” would produce an output of 255
- “0:00:25” would produce an output of 25
etc

def get_sec(time_str): """Get seconds from time.""" h, m, s = time_str.split(':') return int(h) * 3600 + int(m) * 60 + int(s) print(get_sec('1:23:45')) print(get_sec('0:04:15')) print(get_sec('0:00:25'))
