time - Creating a timer in python -


import time def timer():    = time.localtime(time.time())    return now[5]   run = raw_input("start? > ") while run == "start":    minutes = 0    current_sec = timer()    #print current_sec    if current_sec == 59:       mins = minutes + 1       print ">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>", mins 

i want create kind of stopwatch when minutes reach 20 minutes, brings dialog box, dialog box not problem. minutes variable not increment in code.

you can simplify whole program using time.sleep:

import time run = raw_input("start? > ") mins = 0 # run if user types in "start" if run == "start":     # loop until reach 20 minutes running     while mins != 20:         print ">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>", mins         # sleep minute         time.sleep(60)         # increment minute total         mins += 1     # bring dialog box here
