Delays

[Unregistered]

Does anyone know how can i delay something in c. I have a program that need to display a accounts, but for security reason i need to clear the screen after 10 sec after the account show up. Os i need some timer control so the screen can clear before the next accout show up.

One interesting way to do it is to use select(). I'm sure if you had actually read the FAQ you'd have found information on pausing and screen clearing...

#include <dos.h>

sleep(10000);



That should be 10 seconds

Depends on your OS

for(count=0;count<max;) ;

You have to try what value for max makes any sense.
