[wrz234]

Can guide me how to change the time format if i input 5.45pm and the output will display 17.45 hours. Pls help

This seems like a pretty obvious homework question. Do you have any code so far?

[wrz234]

need to read the input on 5.45 or pm and then convert it if pm was encountered. is it like that?

[wrz234]

pls help on my code, when i input 6:45p .. the output show only '6 45', the ':' and 'p' are gone. Pls correct me where i go wrong.

#include <stdafx.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
	int hour = 0;
	int min = 0;
	char dot = ':' || '.';
	char zone = 'a' || 'p';

		printf("Enter time (H:Mx): ");
		scanf_s("%d%c%d%c", &hour, &dot, &min, &zone);
		printf("time is %d%c%d%c",hour,dot,min,zone);		
}
