 ===== Results Obtained =====
+After i built the Hardware components and wrote the Software (CODE):
+*  The digital clock should display the current time in hours and minutes using the LED matrix.
-What were the results obtained after the realization of your project.
+*  The clock should retrieve the time from the Tiny RTC module using the I2C interface.
+*  The clock should display the current day of the week, date, month, and year on the LED matrix.
+*  The clock should support different text effects and animations for displaying the time and date.
+*  The clock should have three push buttons for controlling the brightness of the LED matrix and activating/deactivating the alarm.
+*  The clock should activate an alarm sound using the buzzer at a predefined alarm time (8:30 AM).
