Once you can divide the number of seconds into hours, minutes, and
seconds, you can format them like this:

time = "%02d:%02d:%02d" % (hours, minutes, seconds)

I'll give you that one for free because I don't think it's
particularly critical to your course, but it will look better that way
:) Look up the string formatting features of Python in the docs.
