Question

How would I loop this so that I can test out the times 1730 and 0900 and the reverse, 0900 and 1730? Preferably a "do, while" loop if possible?

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

       using namespace std;

       int main()

       {

              string name;

              cout << "Please enter your last name " << endl;

              cin >> name;

              cout << "Welcome, " << name << endl;

              //Variables that are being declared

              int time1;

              int time2;

              int timeDifference;

              int min;

              int hrs;

              //Time inputs

              cout << "Please enter the first time: ";

              cin >> time1;

              cout << "Please enter the second time: ";

              cin >> time2;

              //Time conversion

              if (time2 < time1)

              {

                     time2 = time2 + 2360;

              }

              timeDifference = time2 - time1;

              hrs = timeDifference / 100;

              min = timeDifference % 100;

              hrs = hrs + min / 60;

              min = min % 60;

              cout << hrs << " hours " << min << " minutes ";

              system("pause");

              return 0;

       }

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main() {
        string name;
        cout << "Please enter your last name " << endl;
        cin >> name;
        cout << "Welcome, " << name << endl;

        //Variables that are being declared
        int time1;
        int time2;
        
        int min;
        int hrs;

        //Time inputs
        cout << "Please enter the first time: ";
        cin >> time1;
        cout << "Please enter the second time: ";
        cin >> time2;

        //Time conversion
        if (time2 < time1) {
                time2 = time2 + 2360;
        }

        hrs = (time2 / 100) -  (time1 / 100);
        min = (time2 % 100) -  (time1 % 100);

        if(min >= 60) {
                min -= 60;
                hrs++;
        }

        cout << hrs << " hours " << min << " minutes ";

        return 0;
}
