Write a program that requests the current time and a waiting time as two integers for the number of hours and the number of minutes to wait. The program then outputs what the time will be after the waiting period. Use 24-hour notation for the times. Include a loop that lets the user repeat this calculation for additional input values until the user says she or he wants to end the program. Input Notes:Both the current time and the waiting time are entered in the form HH:MM where HH and MM are integers signifying hours and minutes respectively. In response to the continuation prompts (described below) the user types a y or a Y to signify "continue" with any other character signifying "quit". Output Notes (Prompts and Labels):At the outset the program prints the title "Compute completion time from current time and waiting period". The program then prompts for the current time with the prompt "Current time:" followed by the instructions "Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM". After reading the current time, the waiting time is read in with the prompt "Waiting time:" and the same instructions. The resulting time is printed after the prompt "Completion Time in 24 hour format:". This is followed by the continuation prompt "Enter Y or y to continue, any other halts". If the resulting time goes into the next day, the additional output is printed "Completion time is in the day following the start time" (see the example below). EXAMPLE: Note that single digit input and output for both hours and minutes is accepted. Compute completion time from current time and waiting period Current time: Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM 22:3 Waiting time: Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM 05:4 Completion time is in the day following the start time Completion Time in 24 hour format: 3:7 Enter Y or y to continue, any other halts y Current time: Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM 9:00 Waiting time: Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM 8:00 Completion Time in 24 hour format: 17:0 Enter Y or y to continue, any other halts
Control structures
Control structures are block of statements that analyze the value of variables and determine the flow of execution based on those values. When a program is running, the CPU executes the code line by line. After sometime, the program reaches the point where it has to make a decision on whether it has to go to another part of the code or repeat execution of certain part of the code. These results affect the flow of the program's code and these are called control structures.
Switch Statement
The switch statement is a key feature that is used by the programmers a lot in the world of programming and coding, as well as in information technology in general. The switch statement is a selection control mechanism that allows the variable value to change the order of the individual statements in the software execution via search.

EXAMPLE: Note that single digit input and output for both hours and minutes is accepted. Compute completion time from current time and waiting period
Current time:
Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM
22:3
Waiting time:
Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM
05:4
Completion time is in the day following the start time
Completion Time in 24 hour format:
3:7
Enter Y or y to continue, any other halts
y
Current time:
Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM
9:00
Waiting time:
Enter 24 hour time in the format HH:MM
8:00
Completion Time in 24 hour format:
17:0
Enter Y or y to continue, any other halts
