How to Delay in C
Method 1 of 2:
The "for-loop" technique
- Use a typical "for" loop followed by a null statement to implement time delay.
- Write as follows, for an example:
- for (i=1 ; i
- The statement followed by the ";" makes the computer execute the loop 100 times without any noticeable event. It just creates a time delay.
Method 2 of 2:
The "sleep()" Technique
- Use sleep() The function called sleep(int ms) declared in which makes the program wait for the time in milliseconds specified.
- Include the following line in your program before "int main()":
- #include
- Insert, wherever you need your program to make a delay:
- sleep(1000);
- Change the "1000" to the number of milliseconds you want to wait (for example, if you want to make a 2 second delay, replace it with "2000".
- Tip: On some systems the value might refer to seconds, instead of milliseconds. So sometimes 1000 isn't one second, but, in fact, 1000 seconds.
