Turtle Clock

This document contains code to create an analog clock using turtle graphics in Python. It defines functions to initialize turtle shapes for the clock hands, setup the clock face on the screen, and continuously update the positions of the hands based on the current time. The main function calls these functions to initialize the clock, draw the face, and start the ticking animation by calling the tick function repeatedly every 100 milliseconds.
