Javascript per second calculation-CodePudding

I am currently wracking my brain to work out what should probably be a relatively simple per second calculation. I have a loading bar increase and at the end of that, it adds 1 to the total. The loading bar consists of:

wId = setInterval(worker_identify_call, wIdSpeed);

and

function worker_identify_call(){
    worker_identify_amount  ;
    wElem.style.width = worker_identify_amount   '%';
}

wIdSpeed = 250.

I am trying to calculate how long, in seconds, it will take to reach the top of the loading bar (100%).

I currently have ((1000/wIdSpeed).toFixed(2)) but that just calculates how long a cycle of setInterval takes.

CodePen with example here.

Any help is appreciated!

I'm in idiot. For anyone that wants to find this in the future, it would be:

(((wIdSpeed/1000)*100).toFixed(2));

Where wIdSpeed is the speed of your interval.

CodePudding user response：

If you want to recalculate after every cycle you have to move workerString(); to inside the function that loops.

As for the math, you need to get the remaining (100 - worker_identify_amount) and check how many things it's adding per second and figure out the result from that.
