Get a DateTime by subtracting seconds from the current date

Question

I would like to subtract seconds from a date, for example:

Lets say I have 1300 seconds in a unsigned integer, I would like to take the current date and time, subtract 1

Answer 1

AddSeconds(double value) method of DateTime takes positive and negative number of seconds:

[value parameter represents] a number of whole and fractional seconds. The value parameter can be negative or positive.

Hence, to subtract 1300 seconds you need to add -1300 seconds:

DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(-1300);
