Could anyone suggest other ways of achieving summing of times ie sum(end_time - start_time). At the moment I have a rather unwieldy sql query (see below).


sum(
    (strftime("%H",end_time)*60+strftime("%M",end_time))      -
    (strftime("%H",start_time)*60+strftime("%M",starttime)) )



sum(end_time - start_time)*1440

end_time and start_time are both in (fractional) days since
the julian epoch (-4713-11-24 12:00:00 UTC).  The "*1440" at
the end converts from days into minutes.  If you want an
integer number of minutes, do this:

round(sum(end_time-start_time)*1440)
