This is an alarm clock code question using Raspberry PiQt4.

Asked 2 years ago, Updated 2 years ago, 42 views

I want to implement an alarm clock using gui, but if I set the alarm, the following errors are generated. The error below is an error that occurs when the alarm time is set from 00:00 a.m. to 09:00 a.m.

self.alarm_h = int(alarm_time[19:21]) #value of hour is sotred in index value 19 and 20
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '0,'

Below is an error that occurs when you set the alarm from 00 to 09 minutes.

self.alarm_m = int (alarm_time[23:25]) #value of minute is sotred in index value 23 and 24
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '0,'

You set the time value from 19 to 21 and the minute value from 23 to 25, but I don't know where the code is coming from.

alarm_time = str(self.Set_Time.time())
self.alarm_h = int(alarm_time[19:21]) #value of hour is sotred in index value 19 and 20
self.alarm_m = int (alarm_time[23:25]) #value of minute is sotred in index value 23 and 24

It seems to be using Set_Time.time() to get a string that expresses time and then cut it to use it, but an error appears to occur when the value 0, goes over.

I think it would be better to bring the time and minutes directly rather than to convert them back into strings.

self.alarm_h = self.Set_Time.time().hour()
self.alarm_m = self.Set_Time.time().minute()

I think you can change it to .
