Program to convert time from 12 hour to 24 hour format

Given a time in 12-hour AM/PM format, convert it to military (24-hour) time.
Note: Midnight is 12:00:00 AM on a 12-hour clock and 00:00:00 on a 24-hour clock. Noon is 12:00:00 PM on 12-hour clock and 12:00:00 on 24-hour clock

Examples:

Input : A single string containing a time in 12-hour 
clock format(hh:mm:ss AM or hh:mm:ss PM
        where 01 <= hh <= 12 or 01 <= mm,ss <= 59 
Output :Convert and print the given time in 24-hour format,
where 00 <= hh <= 23

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