Why is my timestop programm illegal?

I wanted to build a method that can stop the program for a few seconds, so the user can have breaks between the output that he receives. What is my mistake here? Is it actually possible? public void stopSeconds(long s){ long a = System.getCurrentTimeMillis(); do{ long z = System.getCurrentTimeMillis(); long dif = z-a; long stop= s*1000; }while (dif <= stop); https://code.sololearn.com/cxA03SBLV7sn/?ref=app

You cannot use functions inside a function. You can either place the method outside the main or convert it to a lambda expression.

Interesting fact this feature of having a method inside another is coming to C# but with some limitations.
