You need to decide whether you want 'between' to be a method of the
MyTime class or a separate function.

In the above code it's defined as a method, so you can say:

     t2.between(t3, t1)

which means "is t2 between t3 and t1?".

That would return False because t3 is greater than t1, but:

     t2.between(t1, t3)

would return True.

(I _did_ say that it assumes that the times are ordered.)
