Add a field called startTime : Time to your model, which tracks when the 
timer was started. Taking the difference between the current time and 
startTime gives you the first quantity you wanted. To get the second 
quantity, write (t % 60) // 1. The (//) operation rounds it down,  and the 
(%) operation does the rest.
