Do not use replace function to replace numeric value because if value matches then each value will be replace.

For example if input is 09:09 PM

so if you do this:

z=int(x[0:2])+12.
x1=x.replace(x[0:2], str(z))

here 09 will be replace by (12 + 9) = 21

so output would be 21:21 which is wrong because it would be 21:09

Here is shortest solution of your code:

x = input()

isam = x.find("AM")

hours = int(x[0:2])
mins = x[x.index(":"):-3]

time = ''

if isam > 0:
time = x.replace("AM", "")
else:
time = str(hours + 12) + mins

print (time)

Answer 2

I had this same issue when I solved it, it's just because there also needs to be a 0 before the hour if it's less than 10! (ex. 1:00 should be 01:00)
