DS3231 and a 1602 LCD pico

https://github.com/Algester/Pico-Clock-with-DS3231-RTC

So I have been toying with my pico for some time just trying to "understand" it

So ultimately what I want to do is to have 3 buttons interface into the RTC and program itself

1-2 buttons when set into the RTC will be able to adjust the day/time on the fly, and then in the "standard" mode have 1 button read out data from the AM2320 (I only found out that it spits out float data so I need to somehow convert float into intiger but I don't have the current python knowledge to do it because the LCD driver doesnt like float values)

Thus far the program and code is "mostly" working at this point I'm just trying to make everything much more finesse
Like being able to set the typical 24 hour display of the DS3231 into 12 hour mode, and make it display the 3 first letters of the month right now I'm just putting stuff into the main_test.py so I should be deleting the main-1.py
