Problem 45848. What is the current time in Darwin, Australia?

Traders need to track exchange calendars and trading hours in detail, and account for time zone differences and daylight savings offsets. These can be tricky in cities with half-hour and quarter-hour offset to UTC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_stock_exchange_trading_hours

MATLAB comes to rescue! https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/datetime.html

You are given an array with UTC date and time as [year, month, day, hour, minute] and a char array with the name of the time zone. Return a char array with the current date and time in the specified time zone, in the format 'MMM-dd-yyyy HH:mm'.

For example, for inputs [2020 6 9 21 50 0] and 'Australia/Dawin', you should get 'Jun-10-2020 07:20' in return.
