Forked project to fix a bug I was getting:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./binary_clock.py", line 36, in
display_binary(t.microsecond / 10000, 6, hundredths_color)
File "./binary_clock.py", line 21, in display_binary
binary_str = "{0:8b}".format(value)
ValueError: Unknown format code 'b' for object of type 'float'
Adjusted line 35 to:
display_binary(int(t.microsecond / 10000), 6, hundredths_color)
After fix code runs on my end with no issue.
