# print_hours.cpp

Demonstrate time iteration, clock retrieval, and simple calculation.

    //Print the remaining hours of the day
    //Uses the clock to get the local time
    //Use an iterator to iterate over the remaining hours
    //Retrieve the date part from a time
    /* Expected Output something like:

    2002-Mar-08 16:30:59
    2002-Mar-08 17:30:59
    2002-Mar-08 18:30:59
    2002-Mar-08 19:30:59
    2002-Mar-08 20:30:59
    2002-Mar-08 21:30:59
    2002-Mar-08 22:30:59
    2002-Mar-08 23:30:59
