Hi Everybody can someone provide me the Java code for converting seconds into Days ,Hours and Minutes

for example

1 Day 2 Hr 20 Min =24*60*60 + 2*60*60 + 20*60= 94800 Seconds

Similarly if we input 94800, the output should be 1 Day 2 Hr 20 Min

It doesn't work like that. We're NotACodeMill. What have you tried so far? What didn't work?

You know how to convert days, hours and minutes into seconds. Converting seconds into days, hours and minutes is the inverse. The only "difficult" part is the splitting of one value into three values. Any part smaller than 1 day will be hours plus minutes; any part smaller than 1 hour will be minutes.

I would recommend the Joda-Time library
The Period and PeriodFormat classes look very relevant.
