Read again.
Extract the seconds and calculate the hours, minutes and seconds.
test_db=# select extract (epoch from '1 day 07:57:52'::interval);date_part
----------- 115072
(1 Zeile)
Okay, 115072 Seconds.
test_db=# select extract (day from '1 day 07:57:52'::interval);date_part
----------- 1
(1 Zeile)
Okay, this is 1 day, 24 hours.
test_db=# select extract (epoch from '1 day 07:57:52'::interval) - 60*60*24*(extract (day from '1 day
07:57:52'::interval));?column?
---------- 28672
(1 Zeile)
Okay, 24 hours and 28672 seconds, and you know, this is less then 1 day.
Now calculate, how many hours in 28672 seconds:
test_db=# select 28672 / 3600;?column?
---------- 7
(1 Zeile)
Now you can add 24 hours and 7 hours, the remainder is
test_db=# select 28672 - 3600*7;?column?
---------- 3472
(1 Zeile)
seconds. Now you can calculate the minutes and, finaly, the seconds.
Is the way now okay? Write a function for this job.
Regards, Andreas
