military time in java

[mrshinton01]

Hi all,

I am new programmer, and need to use the military time to calculate
the duration of a phone call.

I wanted to use the increment and add 1 to make the hour change. I
have to input the time but I am not sure how to do it. Do I need to
declare the hours if greater than 59 then add 1 and reset the count

If anyone can direct me to the proper way, I would appreciate it

thanks,
Luvie

do your calculations in UT milliseconds, and convert with DateFormat
to Zulu time. See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/calendar.html
for the details.
