For example, max_time = "60" indicates a maximum time of 60 minutes, max_time = "03:00:00" a maximum time of 3 hours, max_time = "4-12" a maximum of 4 days and 12 hours, and max_time = "2-02:30:00" a maximum of 2 days, 2 hours and 30 minutes.

Examples


# Test cases (outputs in seconds)
timeFormater("4-12")        # day-hours
timeFormater("4-12:15")     # day-hours:minutes
timeFormater("4-12:15:30")  # day-hours:minutes:seconds

timeFormater("30")          # minutes
timeFormater("30:30")       # minutes:seconds
timeFormater("4:30:30")     # hours:minutes:seconds

# output in hours
timeFormater("4-12", output = 'hour')
timeFormater("4-12:15", output = 'hour')
timeFormater("4-12:15:30", output = 'hour')

timeFormater("30", output = 'hour')
timeFormater("30:30", output = 'hour')
timeFormater("4:30:30", output = 'hour')
