My program does not go to switch case.

Im writing an project on time format conversion. Why my program does not use case 'a' and case 'p', when i input 'a' or 'p'? can correct for me? Because i want to check when we input 'a' or 'p' only. Please help

#include <Stdafx.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
	int hour = 0;
	int min = 0;
	int am;
	int pm;
	char dot = ':';
	char zone;

	printf("Enter time (H:Mx) : ");
	scanf_s("%d",&hour);
	scanf_s("%c",&dot);
	scanf_s("%d",&min);
	scanf_s("%c",&zone);
	
	switch (zone)
	{
	case 'a':
		am = 00 + hour;
		printf("%d",am);
		break;

	case 'p':
		pm = 24 - hour;
		printf("%d",pm);
		break;

	default:
		printf("You enter a wrong time format\n");
	}
}

I think you will find that switch takes an int not a char. So change zone type to int.

nope, in a switch case control statement, the control variable must be of an int or char type only.
