  • bpm to seconds calculation as specified by Bach, with permission to use

    I would like to know how to turn a bpm_value into a time in seconds. I would also like permission to use this for commercial purposes, no copyright.

    Bach invented bpm.
    so
    seconds=f(bpm_value) with f() being what?

    I'm just going to take a guess and say: bpm_value * 60
