Description

The SECONDS() function returns the seconds from the current time as a number. The SECONDS() function will also return the seconds from an optionally specified <time-string>. If the command SET CLIPPER is ON, the SECONDS() function operates in the same way as the SECS() function.

? seconds("10:33:21")
        21
