Introduction

Welcome! In this lesson, we will explore the practical applications of string operations and type conversions using Kotlin. These concepts are essential and are utilized in numerous programming scenarios. We'll focus on a real-world example: time parsing. Have you ever wondered how to add a certain number of seconds to a specific time? By the end of today's session, you'll have the ability to calculate this using Kotlin. Let's get started!

Task Statement and Description

Imagine this: You receive a time formatted as a string in HH:MM:SS, where HH, MM, and SS denote the hour, minute, and second, respectively. You are also given an integer representing a certain number of seconds. Your task is to calculate the new time after adding the provided seconds, then output the result in the HH:MM:SS format.

For example, if the input time is 05:10:30 and the number of seconds to add is 123, the output should be 05:12:33 since 123 seconds translate to 2 minutes and seconds.
