Hi Daver. There is no pause method as such, but it can be done.

For timers (countdown = false), it's simple:

if (tock.go) {
    tock.stop();
} else {
    tock.start();
}

For countdown timers it is a bit more complicated as start() requires a parameter. So you would have to do something like:

if (tock.go) {
    tock.pause_time = tock.lap();
    tock.stop();
} else {
    tock.start(tock.pause_time);
}

I should probably just add a pause() method...

Hi, thanks for the answer but I have once concern, the solution will remember the last value?, I mean it will start in the point where stops?

I've made a small change to the second piece of code above. It will remember the time, yes.

Thanks again, I feel a little dumb but, can this work for not a countdown?

Pull the latest changes and you can just use pause().
