insertion of rounds by time
I am developing a game quiz, and I would like to put that the user has a time limit to answer, but I don't know with which command or library I could do this. I think of putting something like a 'timer' and 'if' the user does not send the answer in that time to take some action

#include <Windows.h>
Sleep( int miliseconds );
edit: as more explanation, use that sleep() in the main loop with low delay like sleep(30) (maybe?),
and then increase a float variable each time that loop repeats, so you can count the time elapsed without affecting the input system.

But in this case, the command will stop to execute, how can I use sleep to create rounds

Man, thank you, you explained it well. But I'm a beginner programmer and I didn't quite understand what to do, could you give me an example ?? Appreciate :)

What you will do is like in most games, there will be a main loop which everything will happen in it,
something like that,
int main()
{
// some declarations
float time = 0; // time elapsed since game started
float cooldown = 5; // time in seconds for each question
float f = 0;
// bla bla bla
while (!gameOver)
{
if (time > f + cooldown) // this means, did time cooldown amount of seconds elapsed or not?
{
f += time; // we add the current time in seconds
// U failed the question
// bla bla bla
}
// some codes
// print, input things
// bla bla
Sleep(10); // 10ms delay so FPS is 100
time += 10.0f / 1000.0f;
}
}
Something like this should work
