/* SOLUTION

30
+
a) **How many variable declarations are there in this program?**
31
+
There are **5** variable declarations: `movieLength`, `remainingSeconds`, `totalMinutes`, `remainingMinutes`, `totalHours`, and `result`.
32
+
33
+
b) **How many function calls are there?**
34
+
- The template literal uses `${...}` expressions, but these are not function calls.
35
+
- The only function call is `console.log(result);`.
36
+
So, there is **1** function call.
37
+
38
+
c) **Using documentation, explain what the expression `movieLength % 60` represents**
39
+
The `%` operator returns the remainder after dividing `movieLength` by `60`. In this context, it gives the number of seconds left after converting as many full minutes
40
+
as possible from the total seconds.
41
+
42
+
d) **Interpret line 4, what does the expression assigned to `totalMinutes` mean?**
43
+
`(movieLength - remainingSeconds) / 60` subtracts the leftover seconds from the total, then divides by 60 to get the total number of complete minutes in the movie.
44
+
45
+
e) **What do you think the variable `result` represents? Can you think of a better name for this variable?**
46
+
`result` represents the movie length formatted as `hours:minutes:seconds`. A better name could be `formattedTime` or `movieLengthHMS`.
47
+
48
+
f) **Try experimenting with different values of `movieLength`. Will this code work for all values of `movieLength`? Explain your answer**
49
+
The code works for positive integer values of `movieLength`. However, for values less than 60, `totalHours` and `remainingMinutes` will be `0`, which is correct.
50
+
For negative or non-integer values, the output may not make sense. Also, the output does not pad single-digit minutes or seconds with a leading zero (e.g., `1:2:3` instead of `01:02:03`).
