Clock Time Calculations
A clock time is a moment in time typically formatted with a colon (hh:mm)
Adding or subtracting time from a clock time
Finding the interval between two clock times
Ambiguity when using the minus (-) operator with clock times
Sadly, the minus operator can be ambiguous when it comes to clock times.
Many of us use it to indicate a range of time from the first clock time to the second clock time (which is in the future):
5pm - 9pm
(5pm to 9pm)
But many of us also use it to express a subtraction of second clock time from the first clock time:
5pm - 3pm
(5pm minus 3pm)
