Given a datetime variable t, return the angle (in degrees) between the hour and minute hands of an analog clock at the time represented by t.
- The angle returned should be the smaller of the two angles between the hands (ie it should always be in the range [0,180]).
- Assume the hands are moving continuously (so at 03:30:00, the hour hand will be halfway between 3 and 4; at 03:26:30, the minute hand will be halfway between 26 and 27, etc).
- The time may be am or pm; the angle returned should be assuming a standard 12-hour clock (so 03:26:30 and 15:26:30 will return the same angle).

The solution template had "function " twice (i.e., "function function angle = ...). That has been fixed.
Wow! No one else thought to start by converting the datetime to a scalar?
Good problem.
Very interesting, various and pleasant problem group.
