    Difference b/ween hours into minutes??

    Hi all


    In C++ how do i convert the difference b/ween 2 times in hours into minutes?

    consider an employee comes in to work in the morning and goes home in the evening.

    timein --> 9.00 AM
    timeout --> 4.00PM

    how would i calculate how many hours he has worked for that day?

    if i were to do the following

    workhours = timeout - timein

    then the o/put would surely be wrong.

    thanx.

    Use "military" time. For example, 4:00PM can be represented as 16:00.
    Code:
    IF time is in "PM" AND time >= 1:00
       add 12:00 to time
    ENDIF
    gg
