Basic Requirements

Write a program that validates time when entered. It should output the time as either AM or PM or the error if entered incorrectly.

See sample output below.

LiFiUnit6Ch15.java

• Driver class should loop until "q" is entered to quit
• If enter is not "q", then create an instance of the LiFiTime object passing the entry as an argument
• If no error

o Print time by calling print method in LiFiTime class
• If error
o Print error message (see sample)

LiFiTime.java class

Time objects should store the time in 2 integer instance variables, hour and minute, and include a string variable to hold the error. This should be initialized with null.

LiFiTime Constructor:

• Receive time as a string
• Perform error checking to ensure time was entered in proper format to include a color (:) between the digits
• Use indexOf and substring to separate the time string into the appropriate instance variables
• Check hour to ensure is between 1 and 23
• Check minute to ensure is between 0 and 59
• If an error occurs, change the error instance variable to reflect the error (see sample)

print method:

• Include a separate method to print the date using printf to output time in digits for the hour and 2 digits for the minutes
• Print AM if before noon and PM if after noon. Do NOT print in military time

getError method:
• Include a getError method that returns the error instance variable to the print method

Sample

Your output will vary based on the random numbers generated.

Sample session (requires no user input):
Enter time in the form mm:dd ("q" to quit): 5:20
05:20 AM
Enter time in the form mm:dd ("q" to quit): 05:20
05:20 AM
Enter time in the form mm:dd ("q" to quit): 05:80
Invalid minute entered: 80

Enter time in the form mm:dd ("q" to quit): 15:20
03:20 PM
Enter time in the form mm:dd ("q" to quit): 25:20
Invalid hour entered: 25
Enter time in the form mm:dd ("q" to quit): 0520
Invalid separator entered: :
Enter time in the form mm:dd ("q" to quit): q
