Examples
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var roundn = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/roundn' );
var MILLISECONDS_IN_HOUR = require( '@stdlib/constants/time/milliseconds-in-hour' );
var ms;
var h;
var i;
function hrs2ms( hrs ) {
return hrs * MILLISECONDS_IN_HOUR;
}
for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
h = roundn( randu()*20.0, -2 );
ms = hrs2ms( h );
console.log( '%d hours => %d milliseconds', h, ms );
