Output military time correctly

Mayah (13)
Hi there!

I'm trying to figure out how to output the default time 00:00:00 as opposed to 0:0:0 which is what currently happens. I know I need to put quotes around it, but I'm uncertain as to where in the code I can put "00".

Also, I'm having an issue with the program not outputting the two time values in ascending order as it should. I suspect something is wrong with the if function at the bottom of main where I output the values. Should there be an else added where t2 is printed before t1? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Set width of field to 2 and fill to '0'.

Thank you! Is there also a way of doing it without having to add <iomanip>? I think the professor wants us to do it "manually" since we haven't used <iomanip> yet.

Well, you do know that if num<10 then you can print an extra 0 before you print the num.
