The trickiest part to me is finding the difference then using the mod function to get the hours,mins,secs: well, i used the below formula to achieve the result.

 

Mod(tonumber(DateTimeDiff([Time_Now],[TIMESTAMP],'hours')),24)

6 - Meteoroid

Hi! I'm here again to share my solution.

 

This challenge is quite challenging though if you base on the data that were in the start file and solution file.

I was tricked! I thought my solution was wrong because of the 41 seconds interval with the given solution.

When I checked again and again, the given values were not the same. Haha!

So... yep, my solution is correct. I almost doubted myself.

 

Here's a preview of my solution. I only used the Formula Tool in generating the solution.

starting to learn that referencing columns in Python Dataframes is as simple as df['column_name'] (case sensitive!!!) that's a nice part about alteryx is that it isn't natively case sensitive.
