Hello
I am trying to create my first Alarm Clock but I've stuck. I've simply created Tkinter window with a clock and some entry boxes and button to set the alarm time. Now:
1. The clock is working and its type is a string
2. Entry boxes are taking entered values and (after the "Set Time" button clicked) they are being shown in the grey label also as a string type.
3. I've made another def alarm(): to define that if the clock string is in the alarm time string then I want to message box to appear but for some reason, I have no errors and message box doesn't appear
can you please review my code and point me why showinfo() message box is no being executed.
