Math problems with div32

[srspinho]

Hello Guys !

I have a piece of code that is giving me some troubles when my program runs over several hours without stop.

Here goes what I´m doing :

Hour var Byte
Minutes var Byte
Seconds var Byte
Time var Word
TempA var word
Kilometers var word
Hundreds var word

Time = (3600 * Hours) + (60 * Minutes) + Seconds
TempA=(((Kilometers * 10) + Hundreds) * 3600)
VM=DIV32 (Time)

The problem is that the variable "Time" goes over 32767 after 9 hours (or so), and I have, frequently trips over 14 hours.

does some one have any idea o how to simplify the math ?

Thank you very much !

Hi,
Try this:

    Time = (3600 * Hours) + (60 * Minutes) + Seconds 

    IF Time > 32767 THEN
        Time = Time >> 1
        TempA = ((Kilometers * 10) + Hundreds) >> 1
        TempA = TempA * 3600
        VM=DIV32 (Time)
    ELSE
        TempA = (((Kilometers * 10) + Hundreds) * 3600)
        VM=DIV32 (Time)
    ENDIF
