Complete the following method that takes a String parameter that is a time in American 12 hour format, such as "06:12 PM." The method returns a String with the same time in standard international 24 hour form. For example, given the parameter in the example above, the method would return "18:12." Values with AM correspond to times from 00:00 to 11:59 and PM for times from 12:00 to 23:59. Recall the method Integer. parseInt () takes a String parameter and returns the integer equivalent. And then simply I am supposed to create a method like so ... public static String convertTime (String amerFormat) { }
