+time is always 4 digits longs with a colon seperating hour and minutes:
+minutes are directly correlated in both times, no conversion needed (right two digits)
+remove colon from number
+add any leading 0s as necessary to fit 4 spaces: XXXX (04:43 AM -> 0443) (done in a later printf) (for now, 443)
+
+
+12 AM - 12:59 AM = just add the minutes
+
+
+1:00 AM - 12:59 PM = add the minutes and add (100 * number left of colon) (Example 3:42 AM -> (42 + (3 * 100)) => 342)
+(another example: 12:16 PM -> (16 + (12 * 100) => 1216)
+
+
+1 PM - 11:59 PM = add the minutes and add ((12 + number left of colon) * 100)
+example: 3:33 PM -> 33 + (3 + 12) * 100 => 1533
+
+
+longest string = 12:12 PM - 12:12 AM (19 characters)
+shortest string = 1 AM - 2 PM (11 characters)
