Converting Between AM/PM and 24 Hour Clock: making the conversion

NOTE: We've guessed that you're not using a client that supports colored tables and have tried to compensate. Low graphics mode looks much better on clients that do... we recommend switching to Netscape 3.0 or Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Converting Between AM/PM and 24 Hour Clock making the conversion

Converting from AM/PM to 24 hour clock:

between 12:00 AM and 12:59 AM, subtract 12 hours:
12:59 AM --> 0059
between 1:00 AM and 12:59 PM, a straight conversion:
10:00 AM --> 1000
between 1:00 PM and 11:59 PM, add 12 hours:
10:59 PM --> 2259

Converting from 24 hour clock to AM/PM:

between 0000 and 0059, add 12 hours:
0059 --> 12:59 AM
between 0100 and 1159, straight conversion to AM:
0100 --> 1:00 AM
between 1200 and 1259, straight conversion to PM:
1259 --> 12:59 PM
between 1300 and 2359, subtract 12 hours:
1559 --> 3:59 PM
