# convert 12hr time into 24hr time(Normal time to Military Time)
'''
Algorithm:
1. Take input and check if time contains AM or PM
2. If time is in AM 
   i. Slice the string and remove AM
   ii. Split the string by ':' and add to a list
   iii. Create an empty list to store the military time
   iv. If hours in normal time is 12 then it will be 00 hrs in military time
   v. Rest hours, minutes and seconds are same in both normal and military time
   vi. Join back the list and print military time
3. If time is in PM
   i. Slice the string and remove AM
   ii. Split the string by ':' and add to a list
   iii. Create an empty list to store the military time
   iv. If hours in normal time is 12 then it will be same in military time
   v. Create dictionary with normal hours as key and military hours as value and add to the military list
   vi. Join back the list and print military time
