# What time is it?

## [What time is it?](https://www.codewars.com/kata/57729a09914da60e17000329)

Given a time in AM/PM format as a string, convert it to military (24-hour) time as a string.

Midnight is 12:00:00AM on a 12-hour clock, and 00:00:00 on a 24-hour clock. Noon is 12:00:00PM on a 12-hour clock, and 12:00:00 on a 24-hour clock

Sample Input: 07:05:45PM Sample Output: 19:05:45

Try not to use built in DateTime libraries.
