Hi!

You didn't ask a question. You might want to read thehomework policy if you run into problems and want to ask for help here.

i need help finishing the code

I will give you some help. Then you must be able to write other functions.

public int getHour()
{
	if(isTiming)
		return -999;    //returns that the timer is running
	else
	{
 	       int timeDiff= myStoptime - myStarttime ;
	       return (timeDiff/1000)/(60*60);
	}
}

public int getMinutes()
{
	if(isTiming)
		return -999;
	else
	{
		int timeDiff= myStoptime - myStarttime ;
		return (timeDiff/(1000*60)) % 60;
	}
}

public String toString() 
{
	if(isTiming)
		return -999;
	else
	{
		String output = getHour() + ":" + getMinutes() + ":" + getSeconds() + ":" + getMillis() ;
		return output;
	}
}
