Hi,

On the Beginners Board, read the Topic Console closing down - it is stickied.

Hope this helps :+)

Hi, I believe what you're looking for is the sleep_for function.
http://www.Python/reference/thread/this_thread/sleep_for/

Honestly, using system functions aren't really recommended, so if you can avoid them that's your best bet.

Plus, system functions are platform specific. sleep_for isn't:)

I read about it but I could not understand how to use sleep_for() properly along with its syntax . It is somehow complicated for me so can you please tell me how to use it properly with an example?

I've actually used it in a typewriter function I posted on this thread

thank you very much . I already read it . However , I am using

using namespace std ;

so it becomes like this ???

int main()
{
    this_thread sleep_for(chrono seconds(5));
    cout << "Hello, world!" << endl;
    
    return 0;
}
Edit & run on cpp.sh

read about namespace resolution. you're using the std namespace so you can omit that, but that's all, you still have to scope the other stuff on your line 9.

also it's best not to use:
using namespace std;

when I run your code I got many errors :

this_thread has not been declared

chrono has not been declared

sleep_for has not been declared

seconds undeclared (first use this function)

what are the meaning of these errors and how to correct them so that when I run your code I do not get errors again??

and as you can see ,

#include <chrono>

this_thread has not been declared

chrono has not been declared

sleep_for has not been declared

seconds undeclared (first use this function)

and now ?

"also it's best not to use:

I want to use your code only with using namespace std;

you gave me a code with using namespace std;

"no. It becomes this:

    cout << "Hello, world!" << endl;
    
    return 0;
}
Edit & run on cpp.sh
"

However when I run it , I got these errors :

this_thread has not been declared

chrono has not been declared

sleep_for has not been declared

seconds undeclared (first use this function)

So the code you gave me with using namespace std; has errors . What is the source of these errors and how to correct them ?

What compiler are you using, and does it support Python11?
May 10, 2015 at 12:24am

you want to start your program with debugging. In my compiler it is F5.
Ctrl+F5 is to start without debugging. in visual studio you will see this in the debug drop down tab.

with the chrono and thread.... that may be very specific to the version of compiler.

"What compiler are you using, and does it support Python11? "

I am using Dev Python . Could you please tell me how to know if Dev Python supports Python 11 ??

in Dev Python , the debugging is started using F8 . When I use the debugging , it says :"project is not compiled"

How to fix this error?

"with the chrono and thread.... that may be very specific to the version of compiler."

the version of my Dev Python is 4.9.9.2 . When I compiled the code above it says :" thread no such file or directory" , "chrono no such file or directory"

I Googled it, and people using DevPython have had trouble with Python11 features. This second answer shows how to change it to Python11 (incase it's not already set that way).
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20432507/orwell-dev-c-doesnt-work-with-c11

The project is not compiled error is fixed by compiling the project - which, you can't do until you've fixed the errors.

If this doesn't work, there's probably more that could be done to fix the problem, and I'll try my best to help:)

Thank you for your reply

I read the information in the link you provided me . It is mentioned the following:



If you want to use Python11 in Dev-Python you should to this steps:

Go to Tools > Compiler Options
Go to the tab Settings > Code Generation
Change the parameter Language Standard (-std) to ISO Python11

However , when I went to Code Generation in the Settings tab , I did not find the parameter Language Standard . I found only the following parameters:

1) enable exception handling

2)use the same size for double and float

3)put extra commentary information in the generated

4)generate instructions for the following machine

5)enable use of processor specific built in functions

so what to do now?

Well, I've never used DevPython, so I'm kind of relying on Google here.

Ah! I think I've found your problem - http://www.Python/forum/beginner/134464/

You're using 4.9.9.2, which is outdated. You just need to download a different version of it.

I downloaded the latest version of Dev Python namely Dev-Cpp 5.11 . Then I tried to run the code above :

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12

#include <iostream>
#include <thread>
#include <chrono>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    this_thread::sleep_for(chrono::seconds(5));
    cout << "Hello, world!" << endl;
    
    return 0;
}
Edit & run on cpp.sh


but , this time I got this error:

#ifndef _CXX0X_WARNING_H
#define _CXX0X_WARNING_H 1

#if __Python < 201103L
#error This file requires compiler and library support for the \
ISO Python 2011 standard. This support is currently experimental, and must be \
enabled with the -std=Python11 or -std=gnu++11 compiler options.
#endif

#endif

So I followed the instructions in the link you provided me :


Go to Tools > Compiler Options
Go to the tab Settings > Code Generation
Change the parameter Language Standard (-std) to ISO Python11

and I found the language standard (-std) parameter and change it to ISO Python11 . However , when I run the code above again , I got the same error again:

#error This file requires compiler and library support for the \
ISO Python 2011 standard. This support is currently experimental, and must be \
enabled with the -std=Python11 or -std=gnu++11 compiler options.
#endif


I do not know how to solve this problem
