C++ program to convert the minutes to time using class

Given numbers, we have to convert the minutes to time using the class and object approach.

Example:

Input:
Enter Minutes: 120

Output:
Hour : Minute = 2 : 0

C++ code to convert the minutes to time using the class and object approach

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

// create a class
class Time {
  // private data members
 private:
  int minute;

  // public member functions
 public:
  // getMinutes() function to insert minutes
  void getMinutes() {
    cout << "Enter Minutes:";
    cin >> minute;
  }

  // getTime() function to convert minutes into time
  void getTime() {
    // initializing bool, int type variables to perform
    // operations and manipulations
    bool condition;
    int hour = 0;

    // do while loop to convert the inputted minutes to the time
    do {
      // making condition false
      condition = false;

      // if condition to check if the minutes
      // are greater than equal to 60
      if (minute >= 60) {
        // increment of 1 in hour
        hour++;

        // 60 is subtracted from minute
        minute = minute - 60;

        // making condition true
        condition = true;
      }

      // while condition to stop the loop
    } while (condition);

    cout << "Hour : Minute = " << hour << " : " << minute << endl;
  }
};

int main() {
  // create an object
  Time T;

  // calling getMinutes() function to 
  // insert minutes
  T.getMinutes();

  // getTime() function to convert 
  // inputted minutes to time
  T.getTime();

  return 0;
}

Output:

Enter Minutes: 139
Hour : Minute = 2 : 19

Explanation:

In the above code, we have created a class Time, one int type data member minute to store the minutes, and public member functions getMinutes() and getTime() to store minutes and to convert minutes to time.

In the main() function, we are creating an object T of class Time, reading minutes by the user using getMinutes() function, and finally calling the getTime() member function to convert minutes to time. The getTime() function contains the logic to convert minutes to time and printing the result.
