"Digital" is related to the word "digit", in its sense of a number. In a device like a computer, all of the information is translated to binary numbers. Sounds and photographs are reduced to numbers, and are referred to as "digital sounds" or "digital numbers". A digital camera is a camera which records images in this way. In terms of a display, a "digital display" on a clock or speedometer or such similar device displays numbers, digits, to convey the information. An "analog display" on the other hand, displays the information on a dial.

what is a clock made out of
It depends on the type of display. If it's a typical alarm clock where the numbers glow bright red or green, then no. Those are LED displays. If the numbers are black, then yes. Liquid crystals to be exact. Hence the name LCD or Liquid Crystal Display.
5am in the 24-hour clock is 0500 hours.
In a digital clock, electrical energy is transformed into light energy when the LED or LCD display lights up to show the time. The electrical energy powers the circuitry of the clock which then activates the display to emit light.
1. Generally speaking, a digital clock is a digital device. The "heart" of any clock is whatever is used as its time base, and with a digital clock, some kind of digital timing circuit supplies that time base. From there, digital dividers and other circuits count seconds, and other circuits drive a display. 2. Yes by definition it is.

An analog clock is one with an analog display (that shows you the time by means of a flat dial marked with the hours of the day and one or more pointers (hands) that point to the time of day on that dial). A true analog clock should also have a mechanical means for keeping the time and driving the pointers.Conversely a digital display would show you the time directly as numbers which change as the time passes and a true digital clock would calculate the time using a digital/electronic mechanism (a computer).

The first digital alarm clock was invented in 1956 by D.E. Protzmann, an engineer at General Electric. This alarm clock featured a digital display and the ability to set specific alarm times, setting the foundation for modern digital alarm clocks.
6 paired numbers per hour, 00 11 22 33 44 55. so...144 pairs per day, 1008 pairs per week, 4032 per month, 48384 per year...how long do you plan to run this digital clock?
