Convert 12-hour date/time to 24-hour date/time
- by Patrick Cuff
I have a tab delimited file where each record has a timestamp field in 12-hour format:
mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss [AM|PM].
I need to quickly convert these fields to 24-hour time:
mm/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss.
What would be the best way to do this? I'm running on a Windows platform, but I have access to sed, awk, perl, python, and tcl in addition to the usual Windows tools.
