This function suspends execution for the given number of seconds. The argument may be a floating point number to indicate a more precise sleep time.
The actual suspension time may be less than that requested because any caught signal will terminate the sleep() following execution of that signal's catching routine.
time.sleep(t) |
Here is the detail of parameters:
t: This is the number of seconds execution to be suspended.
#!/usr/bin/python import time print "Start : %s" % time.ctime() time.sleep( 5 ) print "End : %s" % time.ctime() |
This produces following result:
Start : Tue Feb 17 10:19:18 2009 End : Tue Feb 17 10:19:23 2009 |
