how to use a delay c code example
Example: C delay
/** really not much to say...
just a way to program a delay
between commands in your code. **/
//C library statement
#include <time.h>
//Driver program
void dealy(int numOfSec)
{
/* the delay itself runs with milli seconds
so here we multiply the seconds by 1000. */
int numOfMilliSec = 1000 * numOfSec;
/* Making the time pass with nothing running
until the time is up. */
time_t startTime = clock();
while(clock() < startTime + numOfMilliSec);
}
/*To use the delay just use the command:
delay(x);
you need to replace x with the number
of seconds that you want the delay to
be. */
///The code itself without the details:
#include <time.h>
void delay(int numOfSec)
{
int numOfMilliSec = 1000 * numOfSec;
time_t startTime = clock();
while(clock() < startTime + numOfMilliSec);
}
