Question
Jay Ess 5
I have a qa which updates variables at 1 minute past sunset + x minutes which is stored as a variable, the variable it gets is the sunset time + x minutes for coming saturday. I store the date in sec of the coming saturday.
my problem, is as follows:
say the past sat sunset + x was 17:34 so at 17:35 it will get next weeks sunset and store it, the time for next sat would be approx 13/16 minutes later, so this time it would store 17:47.
now while it check every minute between 17:34 and 17:47 it will fluctuate between the two dates as the first time it runs it is after 17:34 but the second time it runs it is before 17:47.
how can by pass this issue with still running the qa every minute?
have thought about setting a variable to control it and then wait for 1 hour to unset the variable but it feels wrong, also was debating making sure that the next week sat is more then this week, as we generally only go forward in time but again am slightly unconfortable with that as in case i or a user tests this with a forward date it will then not set it self back.
