Problem A: Average Speed
You have bought a car in order to drive from Waterloo to a big city.
The odometer on their car is broken, so you cannot measure distance.
But the speedometer
and cruise control both work, so the car can maintain a constant speed which
can be adjusted from time to time in response to speed limits, traffic
jams, and border queues. You have a stopwatch and note the elapsed time
every time the speed changes. From time to time you wonder, "how far
have I come?". To solve this problem you must write a program to
run on your laptop computer in the passenger seat.
Standard input contains several lines of input: Each speed change is
indicated by a line specifying the elapsed time since the beginning of the trip (hh:mm:ss),
followed by the new speed in km/h. Each query is indicated by a line
containing the elapsed time.
At the outset of the trip the car is stationary.
Elapsed times are given in non-decreasing order and there is at most one
speed change at any given time.
For each query in standard input, you should print a line giving the
time and the distance travelled, in the format below.
Sample Input
00:00:01 100
00:15:01
00:30:01
01:00:01 50
03:00:01
03:00:05 140
Output for Sample Output
00:15:01 25.00 km
00:30:01 50.00 km
03:00:01 200.00 km
