PM Or AM

At MIDNIGHT, do you think it is 12:00pm or 12:00am?

I always thought it Was 12:00Am Not to sure tho.

12:00 PM=Midnight. 12:01 AM would follow. 12AM, I'd think of as noon, until the next minute, when it would switch over to PM.

i always think Pm

Every day starts precisely at midnight and A.M. starts immediately after that point in time e.g. 00:00:01 A.M. (see also leap seconds)

To avoid confusion timetables, when scheduling around midnight, prefer to use either 23:59 or 00:01 to avoid confusion as to which day is being referred to.

It is after Noon that P.M. starts e.g. 00:00:01 PM (12:00:01)

So, for the single smallest measurable unit of time, it is still PM when the clock strikes exactly 12:00 midnight. But then it's immediately AM.

I think i might look on Wikipedia
