Thread: potential problems?

Hey everyone, just getting back into the groove again. I built this function and was wondering if there was anything wrong with it that might manifest later. It works fine that I can see, but it is eventually for use in game programming and such.

Edit: Actually, this would probably be unusable for what I had in mind. Would need something that times in milliseconds. Still, how does the code look?

Code:

void sleep(int seconds) {
	int time = 0;
	clock_t pre_time, post_time;

	pre_time = clock();
	while (time < seconds) {
		post_time = clock();
		if ((post_time/CLOCKS_PER_SEC) >= ((pre_time/CLOCKS_PER_SEC)+1)) {
			time++;
			pre_time = post_time;
		}
	}
	return;
}

Well it's going to burn a lot of CPU time doing nothing.

Is your game likely to want to be doing anything else?

Sire, just try them both with task manager running in the background, and watch the CPU hit 100%

Then try it with something like sleep()
