Can you help me with displaying a digital clock? With both minute and second please.

My first attempt would be time(0) from ctime and sf::Text

Probably not the best way to create clock with SFML but at least it'll give you an idea and a working example

Here is example code [1] which mostly based on this analog clock [2]. And here is digital clock's screenshot [3]. Also I give a try to do a binary clock similar to this [4].

Edit: There is already a binary clock written with SFML [5].
