If you like my avatar plz dont copy it go to:

include dos.h
delay(5000) //5 seconds
or if that doesn't work
include windows.h
sleep(5000)//5 seconds
and i see you got another animated avatar
For portability/compatibility you might want to include the unistd.h file instead of windows.h or dos.h.
None of them seem to work for me, I'm using Dev C++. Windows 98

No, that won't work too well since unistd.h is only compatible with POSIX platforms and won't work on DOS/Windows systems. I've always been of the opinion that if you can't easily do it portably, do it yourself:
Or you could use conditional compilation to include the appropriate headers according to the platform the program is compiled on.Code:#include <ctime> void mesleep ( long m ) { clock_t limit, c = clock(); limit = c + m; while ( limit > c ) c = clock(); }

My best code is written with the delete key.
But that only works on windows...Code:#include <iostream.h> #include <windows.h> int main() { cout<<"Pauseing for 5 seconds"<<endl; Sleep(5000); /* Notice capital 'S' in Sleep */ cout<<"Done pauseing"<<endl; return 0; }

Have you included windows.h?
Are you using a small s instead of a big S (Like it should be) in Sleep()?
