MATLAB: Difference between hours, minutes and seconds

datedifferencehoursminutesseconds

Hi!
I have matrix A
M=[8 8 48;8 15 29;9 30 15;9 48 53;9 49 30;9 52 12;9 57 0;10 2 27;10 28 52;11 29 47;11 43 41;11 44 4];
The first column of the matrix indicates hours, the second minutes and the third seconds. I want to calculate the difference between consecutive rows
Eg.
M(2,1:3)-M(1,1:3) = 0 6 41
Can you help me? Thanks

See if this does what you want:
M=[8 8 48;8 15 29;9 30 15;9 48 53;9 49 30;9 52 12;9 57 0;10 2 27;10 28 52;11 29 47;11 43 41;11 44 4];
Mdn = datenum([repmat([2017 02 02], size(M,1), 1) M]); % Date Numbers
Mdndif = datevec(diff(Mdn)); % Date Number Differences As Date Vectors
Out = Mdndif(:, 4:end) % Desired Result
Out =
0 6 41
1 14 46
0 18 38
0 0 37
0 2 42
0 4 48
0 5 27
0 26 25
1 0 55
0 13 54
0 0 23
