Introduction

Welcome! In today's lesson, we will explore the practical application of string operations and type conversions in Python. These concepts are crucial and are deployed in many programming spheres. We'll examine a real-world example: time parsing. Have you ever pondered how to add a certain number of seconds to some specific time? By the end of today's session, you'll be equipped to calculate this using Python. 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 number of seconds. Your task is to calculate the new time after adding the provided seconds and 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 3 seconds.
