24 hours time using (int input) and converting to (string output)

hello All,

I have created a program to take a users input in 24 hours time and convert it to 12 hour text based out put an example is an input of 13 24 give an output of one twenty-four. The problem I am having is combining these value and formatting. I cannot combine via because I failed to plan for the fact I cannot convert int variable to string variable. Is there an easier basic way of doing this or a basic way to convert an int to a string? take a look and give me some suggestions if possible. I am new so anything with str:: is probably not going to help.

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<cmath>
#include<fstream>
#include<iomanip>


using namespace std;

int main ()
{


int Hours;
int Minutes;
string Hrs;
string Mins;
string endstring;


cout << "Please enter a time 24-hours forat with a space seperating hours and numbers. Example 1 02." << endl;

cout <<"Enter Time:";
cin >> Hours;
cin >> Minutes;
cout <<"The time is"<< endl;
cout << Hours << Minutes << endstring; // my problem is here!!!!!

if (Hours <=12)
endstring= "AM";
else
if(Hours>=13)
endstring="PM";

if (Hours ==0 || Hours==00)
cout << "Midnight";

if(Hours ==1 || Hours==13)
cout<< "one";

Hello

What is your desired output? I still don't get your question

One tip, you can use switch case instead of all those if's

I dont quite understand what you are asking, other than you are displaying a variable which doesnt contain anything. You are displaying it before its assigned in the code below it.

 
cout << Hours << Minutes << endstring; // my problem is here!!!!! 


1
2
3
4
5
if (Hours <=12)
endstring= "AM";
else
if(Hours>=13)
endstring="PM";


Is that what you mean or are you referring to how it displays the time on the screen?

You can format it any way you choose..

 
cout << "You entered " << Hours << ":" << Minutes << endl;


As for the worded hours and minutes you should format those better because if I enter 22 10 it will show "tenten". For those you could put "ten minutes past" so that the format could be "ten minutes past ten".. just an idea.
