Evaluation strings question?

Show all headers | View raw

Given a method like the following...

 @TargetApi(24)
    public void convertEndCivilianTimeToMilitaryTime(String endHour, String endMinute, String endAmOrPm) {
        if (endAmOrPm.equals("PM") && !endHour.equals("12")) {
            endMilitaryHour = Integer.parseInt(endHour) + 12;
            endMilitaryMinute = Integer.parseInt(endMinute);
            //setStartMilitaryHour(startMilitaryHour);
            //setStartMilitaryMinute(Integer.parseInt(startMinute));
        } else if (endAmOrPm.equals("AM") && endHour.equals("12")) {
            endMilitaryHour = 24;
            endMilitaryMinute = Integer.parseInt(endMinute);
        }
        else {
            try {
                endMilitaryHour = Integer.parseInt(endHour);
                endMilitaryMinute = Integer.parseInt(endMinute);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.e("LG_WORK_PHONE",  "BLANK: " + e);
            }

        }
    }

This part..

if (endAmOrPm.equals("PM") && !endHour.equals("12")) {

}

evaluates TRUE when I run the program program but evaluates FALSE when I test it on my IDE evaluate code screen. Can someone point me in the right direction as to why the strings display this kind of behavior? Because I have no clue why it does what it does.
