-/* I made a clock in mbed. mbed has RTC built-in. 
-A convenient function is prepared for in the rtc_time 
-function group of mbed.h. Because data are provided 
-at the time when they give unix timestamp and ask it 
-at suitable distance, a format to like it can be set 
-and displays it to LCD. If unix timestamp is provided 
-from web, it becomes more convenient.
