{{< /callout >}}

A type to hold hours, minutes, and seconds.

```cpp
template <typename TDuration>
class hh_mm_ss
```
**Description**
Static asserts if `TDuration` is not a specialisation of `etl::chrono::duration`.


## Constants
```cpp
static constexpr int fractional_width;
```
**Description**  
The number of fractional digits.

## Member types
```cpp
precision
```
**Description**  
The return type for `to_duration`.

## Constructors
```cpp
ETL_CONSTEXPR 
hh_mm_ss() 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Description**  
Default constructor.

---

```cpp
ETL_CONSTEXPR14
explicit hh_mm_ss(TDuration d) 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Description**  
Construct from `duration`.

## Access
```pp
ETL_NODISCARD
ETL_CONSTEXPR14 
bool is_negative() const 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Description**  
Checks for negative duration.

etl::chrono::hours hours() const 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Return**  
The hours.

```cpp
ETL_NODISCARD
ETL_CONSTEXPR14 
etl::chrono::minutes minutes() const 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Return**  
The minutes.

---

```cpp
ETL_NODISCARD 
ETL_CONSTEXPR14
etl::chrono::seconds seconds() const 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Return**  
The seconds.

---

```cpp
ETL_NODISCARD
ETL_CONSTEXPR14 
precision subseconds() const 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Return**  
The subseconds.

---

```cpp
ETL_NODISCARD
ETL_CONSTEXPR14 
explicit operator precision() const 
ETL_NOEXCEPT

The duration.

---

```cpp
ETL_NODISCARD
ETL_CONSTEXPR14 
precision to_duration() const 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
**Return***  
The duration.

## absolute
```cpp
template <typename TDuration>
ETL_NODISCARD
ETL_CONSTEXPR14 
TDuration absolute(TDuration dur) 
ETL_NOEXCEPT
```
A specialisation of absolute for `etl::chrono::duration`.
**Return**  
The absolute duration value.
