Question

I tried header file <time.h> but problem is It didn't work or I don't know how to use... help....
thank you in advance...

Answer 1

Instead of using time you can use dos.h header file.

Here is an example of code :

#include <iostream.h>
#include <dos.h>

void main ()
{
delay (20000);
cout<<"This line will displayed after 20 seconds";
getch ();
}

Here delay function uses dos header file.
value 1000 in delay means 1 seconds
Therefore to delay it 20 seconds we have entered 20000.
