I Need A Code!!!!

WHATS THE CODE TO WAIT (PAUSE) FOR A CERTIN AMOUT OF SECONDS ED. 5 SECONDS

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:

Code:

---

#include <ctime>
void mesleep ( long m )
{
  clock_t limit,
          c = clock();
  limit = c + m;
  while ( limit > c )
    c = clock();
}

---

Or you could use conditional compilation to include the appropriate headers according to the platform the program is compiled on.

-Prelude

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;
}

---

But that only works on windows...

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