he objective is to form the maximum possible time in the HH:MM:SS format using any six of nine given single digits (not necessarily distinct)
Given a set of nine single (not necessarily distinct) digits, say 0, 0, 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, it is possible to form many distinct times in a 12 hour time format HH:MM:SS, such as 10:36:40 or 01:39:46 by using each of the digits only once. The objective is to find the maximum possible valid time (00:00:01 to 12:00:00) that can be formed using some six of the nine digits exactly once. In this case, it is 10:49:38.
