something like:
Code:
void main() {
if (sensor<black){
startTimer();
}
if (sensor == white && timerStarted == true){
if (timerValue<12600){
doSomething();
}
if (timerValue>12600){
doSomethingElse();
}
}
}
PM me if you need anything else

Dubios you pretty much got it in terms for C++, just in a not very psuedoy pseudo code. For C++'s elif it's just
Code:
if(somethinghappens){
dosomething;
}else if(Somethingelsehappens){
dosomeotherthing;
}
Does the same thing as your elif, but just not as fancy or short
