I am a beginner in Python. I am wondering about does Python has Real Time Clock which is giving us exactly year, month, day, hour, min, and second?
Thank you for your help!

For Date Time operations in python you need to import datetime library.There different functions related to date formatting, getting current date and time etc.. Refer this documentation
import datetime
now = datetime.datetime.now()
print ("Current date and time : ")
print (now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))
Hope the above code will do your job ...
datetime.now()
Thats it.It gives the current date and time upto microseconds. Use as you want.
Setting an alarm after 2 days.
alarm_time = date.today() + timedelta(days = 2) #set alarm time 2day after today
while(date.today()!=alarm_time): #run loop till datetoday is not alarm_time
time.sleep(60*60) #wait for an hour then recheck time
#do here anything you want to do when alarm time has reached#
you can try this:
temp.year, temp.month, temp.day,temp.hour,temp.minute,temp.second would give your desire values separately
from datetime import datetime
temp = datetime.now()
timee = "{:04d}{:02d}{:02d} {:02d}:{:02d}:{:02d}".format(temp.year, temp.month, temp.day,temp.hour,temp.minute,temp.second)
