Digital Clock

Project Overview

The Digital Clock using GUI Program is a Python application built with the Tkinter library to create a graphical user interface that displays the current time and, optionally, the date. The digital clock supports a customizable time format (12-hour or 24-hour) and allows users to toggle the display of the date. The interface provides a simple and intuitive way for users to view real-time updates of the clock.

  • Date Display Toggle:

    • The "Toggle Date" button allows users to display or hide the current date beneath the clock.

  • Real-Time Updates:

    • The clock updates in real-time, providing an accurate representation of the current time.
