How to use seconds() in mql5

#1

hi

In mql4 for counting seconds from the start of the minutes
we have Seconds()
What is the equivalent of this function in mql5?

In other words, how can I have in a mql5 seconds in a minute?

#2 
int Seconds( const datetime time )
{
  return((int)time % 60);
}
#3

Excuse me how should I use this code?

#4 
int Seconds( void )
{
  return((int)TimeCurrent() % 60);
}

void OnStart()
{
  Print(Seconds());
}
#5

This is the equivalent function:

int SecondsMQL4()
{
   MqlDateTime tm;
   TimeCurrent(tm);
   return(tm.sec);
}
