sutracting 24 hour time

[davidmccabe]

I need to construct a ‘C’ program that subtracts one time from another. The times are expressed in terms of a number of hours and a number of minutes and are in 24-hour format. For example, subtracting 1 hour 30 minutes from 1 hour 0 minutes (representing 01:00) should result in 23:30 being displayed (i.e. 11:30pm the previous day). The user will enter four values (the hours and minutes of each of the two times) and the program should then output the result of the subtraction in 24-hour format.

Any help will be much appreciated

Either will work, though I suspect one will be easier than the other.

But as you said, "I need to construct a ‘C’ program"
You DO
