Angle between Clock Hands Python

PROGRAM TO CALCULATE ANGLE BETWEEN HOUR HAND AND MINUTE HAND 




def calcAngle(h,m):

         

        # validate the input

        if (h < 0 or m < 0 or h > 12 or m > 60):

            print('Wrong input')

         

        if (h == 12):

            h = 0

        if (m == 60):

            m = 0

            h += 1;

            if(h>12):

                   h = h-12;

         

        # Calculate the angles moved by

        # hour and minute hands with

        # reference to 12:00

        hour_angle = 0.5 * (h * 60 + m)

        minute_angle = 6 * m

         

        # Find the difference between two angles

        angle = abs(hour_angle - minute_angle)

         

        # Return the smaller angle of two

        # possible angles

        angle = min(360 - angle, angle)

         

        return angle

 

# Driver program 

h = 9

m = 60

print('Angle ', calcAngle(h,m))

h = 3

m = 30

print('Angle ', calcAngle(h,m))
