Examples

var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var roundn = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/roundn' );
var SECONDS_IN_MINUTE = require( '@stdlib/constants/time/seconds-in-minute' );

var secs;
var mins;
var i;

function mins2secs( mins ) {
    return mins * SECONDS_IN_MINUTE;
}

for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) {
    mins = roundn( randu()*20.0, -2 );
    secs = mins2secs( mins );
    console.log( '%d minutes => %d seconds', mins, secs );
}
