I am writing a script in bash to calculate the time elapsed for the execution of my commands, consider:

STARTTIME=$(date +%s)
#command block that takes time to c

    start=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S);
    for x in {1..5};
    do echo $x;
    sleep 1; done;
    end=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S);
    elapsed=$(($end-$start));
    ftime=$(for((i=1;i<=$((${#end}-${#elapsed}));i++));
            do echo -n "-";
            done;
            echo ${elapsed});
    echo -e "Start  : ${start}\nStop   : ${end}\nElapsed: ${ftime}"
    
    Start  : 20171108005304
    Stop   : 20171108005310
    Elapsed: -------------6

    For larger numbers we may want to print in a more readable format. The example below does same as other but also prints in "human" format:

    secs_to_human() {
        if [[ -z ${1} || ${1} -lt 60 ]] ;then
            min=0 ; secs="${1}"
        else
            time_mins=$(echo "scale=2; ${1}/60" | bc)
            min=$(echo ${time_mins} | cut -d'.' -f1)
            secs="0.$(echo ${time_mins} | cut -d'.' -f2)"
            secs=$(echo ${secs}*60|bc|awk '{print int($1+0.5)}')
        fi
        echo "Time Elapsed : ${min} minutes and ${secs} seconds."
    }
    

    Simple testing:

    secs_to_human "300"
    secs_to_human "305"
    secs_to_human "59"
    secs_to_human "60"
    secs_to_human "660"
    secs_to_human "3000"
    

    Output:

    Time Elapsed : 5 minutes and 0 seconds.
    Time Elapsed : 5 minutes and 5 seconds.
    Time Elapsed : 0 minutes and 59 seconds.
    Time Elapsed : 1 minutes and 0 seconds.
    Time Elapsed : 11 minutes and 0 seconds.
    Time Elapsed : 50 minutes and 0 seconds.
    

    To use in a script as described in other posts (capture start point then call the function with the finish time:

    start=$(date +%s)
    # << performs some task here >>
    secs_to_human "$(($(date +%s) - ${start}))"

    I find it very clean to use the internal variable "$SECONDS"

    SECONDS=0 ; sleep 10 ; echo $SECONDS

    Try the following code:

    start=$(date +'%s') && sleep 5 && echo "It took $(($(date +'%s') - $start)) seconds"

    This is a one-liner alternative to Mike Q's function:

    secs_to_human() {
        echo "$(( ${1} / 3600 ))h $(( (${1} / 60) % 60 ))m $(( ${1} % 60 ))s"
    }

    You can use Bash's time keyword here with an appropriate format string

    TIMEFORMAT='It takes %R seconds to complete this task...'
    time {
        #command block that takes time to complete...
        #........
     }
    

    Here's what the reference says about TIMEFORMAT:

    The value of this parameter is used as a format string specifying how the timing information for pipelines prefixed with the time reserved word should be displayed. The ‘%’ character introduces an escape sequence that is expanded to a time value or other information. The escape sequences and their meanings are as follows; the braces denote optional portions.

    %%
    
        A literal ‘%’.
    %[p][l]R
    
        The elapsed time in seconds.
    %[p][l]U
    
        The number of CPU seconds spent in user mode.
    %[p][l]S
    
        The number of CPU seconds spent in system mode.
    %P
    
        The CPU percentage, computed as (%U + %S) / %R. 
    

    The optional p is a digit specifying the precision, the number of fractional digits after a decimal point. A value of 0 causes no decimal point or fraction to be output. At most three places after the decimal point may be specified; values of p greater than 3 are changed to 3. If p is not specified, the value 3 is used.

    The optional l specifies a longer format, including minutes, of the form MMmSS.FFs. The value of p determines whether or not the fraction is included.

    If this variable is not set, Bash acts as if it had the value

    $'\nreal\t%3lR\nuser\t%3lU\nsys\t%3lS'
    

    If the value is null, no timing information is displayed. A trailing newline is added when the format string is displayed.
