What is the best way to convert military time to am and pm time. .
I have the following code and it works fine:



$scope.convertTimeAMPM = function(time){

//var time = 12:23:39;

var time = time.split(':');

var hours = time[0];

var minutes = time[1];

var seconds = time[2];

$scope.timeValue =  + ((hours >12) ? hours -12 :hours);

    $scope.timeValue += (minutes < 10) ? :0 : : + minutes;

    $scope.timeValue += (seconds < 10) ? :0 : : + seconds;

    $scope.timeValue += (hours >= 12) ?  P.M. :  A.M.;

    //console.log( timeValue);

}


But I am not satisfied in the output shows when I run my program. .



Sample output:



20:00:00   8:0:0 P.M.

08:00:00   08:0:0 A.M

16:00:00   4:30:0 P.M.


I want to achieve the output which looks like the following:



20:00:00   8:00:00 P.M.

08:00:00   8:00:00 A.M

16:30:00   4:30:00 P.M.


Is there any suggestions there? Thanks

You missed concatenating the string when minutes < 10 and seconds < 10 so you were not getting the desired result.



Convert string to number using Number() and use it appropriately as shown in the working code snippet below:



EDIT: Updated code to use Number() while declaration of hours, minutes and seconds.





var time = 16:30:00; // your input



time = time.split(':'); // convert to array



// fetch

var hours = Number(time[0]);

var minutes = Number(time[1]);

var seconds = Number(time[2]);



// calculate

var timeValue;



if (hours > 0 && hours <= 12) {

  timeValue=  + hours;

} else if (hours > 12) {

  timeValue=  + (hours - 12);

} else if (hours == 0) {

  timeValue= 12;

}

 

timeValue += (minutes < 10) ? :0 + minutes : : + minutes;  // get minutes

timeValue += (seconds < 10) ? :0 + seconds : : + seconds;  // get seconds

timeValue += (hours >= 12) ?  P.M. :  A.M.;  // get AM/PM



// show

alert(timeValue);

console.log(timeValue);
