Is the timer running? #25

Open phillip-toone opened 5 years ago

phillip-toone commented 5 years ago

Is there a way to query the state of the timer to see if it is running. I use a global boolean variable called isTimerRunning that I set to true or false every time I pause or resume the timer. It seems to me that there would be a method I can use to request the state of the timer. I've looked but haven't been able to find anything in the examples codes or in the keywords.txt file.

Not right now as I put these flags under private. boolean Reset, Stop, Paused;

You can change them to public if you want or just add a new function.

The following function give me what I was looking for:

  boolean isTimerRunning() // output true if timer is running.
  {
    if(Paused)
      return false;
    else
      return true;
  }

I would like to add this code to this public library but I am not sure the best way to do this. Should I fork the project, make the changes, and push the changes back into master. Sorry if this is a stupid question but I am a novice with github and would like to learn. Thanks.
