Creating an array of times using a function.

Hi all!

I have the following loop:

function timeConstruct() {

       let s = 540;
       var e = 1080;
       var a = 30
       var n = 18
       let b = s
       
       while((b) < (e-a)){
              b = (s+=a)
              timeConvert(b)
       }
       
}

and time constructor:

function timeConvert(num) {

    const hours = Math.floor(num / 60);
    const minutes = num % 60;
    
    if (minutes.toLocaleString().length === 1) {
    
        let newMinutes = "0" + minutes.toLocaleString();
        
        if (hours > 12) {
            let h = hours - 12;
            let newHours = h.toLocaleString();
            let time = newHours + ":" + newMinutes + "PM"
            session.setItem("timeOutput", time);
        } else {
            let newHours = hours.toLocaleString();
            let time = newHours + ":" + newMinutes + "AM"
            console.log(time);
            session.setItem("timeOutput", time);
        }    
    }  else {
    
        let newMinutes = minutes.toLocaleString();
        
        if (hours > 12) {
            let h = hours - 12;
            let newHours = h.toLocaleString();
            let time = newHours + ":" + newMinutes + "PM"
            console.log(time);
            session.setItem("timeOutput", time);
        } else {
            let newHours = hours.toLocaleString();
            let time = newHours + ":" + newMinutes + "AM"
            console.log(time);
            session.setItem("timeOutput", time);
        }

    }
    return(session.getItem("timeOutput"))
}

They both work great individually; however, I want to push the results of the timeConstruct loop into an array with the values generated from

while((b) < (e-a)){              
  b = (s+=a)               
  timeConvert(b)        
}

Currently, they are all properly constructed and logged in the console, I just can’t see to push them to an array within the timeConvert loop.

Any help would be awesome!

Update! I got it to work by adding the line:
results(time) to each of the if statements in the timeConvert function. I encountered a new issue though. When changing

function timeConstruct() {

       let s = 540;
       var e = 1080;
       var a = 30
       var n = 18
       let b = s
       
       while((b) < (e-a)){
              b = (s+=a)
              timeConvert(b)
       }
       
}

to

function timeConstruct(s, e, a) {

       let b = s
       
       while((b) < (e-a)){
              b = (s+=a)
              timeConvert(b)
       }
       
}

it stops working properly even when the variables are the same.

Ex:

timeConstruct(540, 1080, 30)
