As this is the crafting SE, I suspected you were attempting to construct a physical clock, hence the answer. For programming, seek professional help (grin). | |

That was essentially the solution I was writing up (but your answer is a lot more succinct). :-) You can reduce the work by marking both sides of the circle while the compass is there (e.g., at 12:00, mark 2:00 and 10:00). | |
