The TimeSpan could not be parsed because at least one of the numeric components is out of range or contain too many digits
c#, timespan
Solution
Change the third line to `my_hours += TimeSpan.Parse("00:25:07")`
You can read about the expected format of `TimeSpan.Parse()` on MSDN:
The s parameter contains a time interval specification in the form:
`[ws][-]{ d | [d.]hh:mm[:ss[.ff]] }[ws]`
So the bare minimum that is required is `hh:mm`. When you put in `25:07`, it was interpreted as 25 hours, seven minutes, which is an illegal value (since hours need to be between 0-23).
Adding in `00:` in front changes it to 0 hours, 25 minutes and 7 seconds, which is now a legal value to parse.
Problem
Following code gives me error as shown in title above: ``` TimeSpan my_hours = new TimeSpan(); my_hours = TimeSpan.Parse("00:00"); my_hours += TimeSpan.Parse("25:07"); //this line throws error ``` Just before the last line runs value of my_hours is 4.01:33:00. How do I fix this error? Basically this code is running in a for loop and the value "25:07" keeps changing and it adds in my_hours and it keeps doing it until it tries to add this value "25:07" when current value of my_hours is 4.01:33:00 and throws error.
