Time limit exceeded

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to execute small code in Python 3, but getting"Time limit exceeded" in the output always.

Here is the code:

import time
i = 1
j= '*'
while i <=5:
if i <=3:
print(j*i)
time.sleep(1) # Delay to see the pattern
else:
print((3+(3-i))*j)
time.sleep(1) # Delay to see the pattern
i +=1

Answer 1

Remove time.sleep(1)
SoloLearn's Code Playground runs on someone else's PC. Which means you can't see the output in real time. So you can't use time.sleep()
