should this work
Sleep for 7000 + random 7000Code:Sleep(rand(7000)%7000);
its not working for me it the way, am doing this incorrect?
it doesen' t give me an error it just doesn't sleep as long as its supost to
its the same thing as this i think, but I'm trying to put them both into one
Code:Sleep(7000); Sleep(rand()%7000);
I’m Dyslexic and I know that I don’t spell well so quit telling to learn my English because I do my best at it all right.
Windows XP with Dev-C++ for now.
that should workCode:Sleep((rand()%7000)+7000);
It doesn't give you any errors?!?!
Nothing like this comes up when compiling?Code:error C2660: 'rand' : function does not take 1 arguments

No, it wouldn't say anything like that if warnings were disabled and <stdlib.h>/<cstdlib> was not included. I'd imagine you'd get something like "warning: implicit declaration of function `rand'", but perhaps not.Originally Posted by iMalc
So, my suggestion to JordanCason is to #include <stdlib.h> or <cstdlib>, since it seems you haven't already.

Arn't implicit declarations only in C?
It is too clear and so it is hard to see.

He could have cooked his rice much sooner.
Apparently not.

You're right, though. In C you usually get "implicit declaration of function" warnings, and in C++ you usually get something like "no match for function call" or something. Whatever, there should be a warning of some kind.

Well, Visual Studio throws a fit in that example. If it can't find the function or symbol, it will complain.
