  /* 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
   * Time left till midnight: 07:29:01
