In an application or program, sometimes you need to stop the execution of the next step or wait for a second. For example, block a user resend the OTP button for and 30 seconds. You can do Python wait by using the Python time module sleep()<\/a> function. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here you will learn about what function you can use and how to work on python wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Syntax<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A simple syntax for the stop a python program for a second. In the sleep() function<\/strong>, you have to pass the t<\/strong> value as seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

time.sleep(t)<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Python wait Example<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Here we are importing direct sleep members from the time module, you can read this tutorial for\u00a0Import from\u00a0module_name.member_name<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this example the first line print immediately but the second-line program will wait for 5 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
from time import sleep\n\nprint(\"Start: Wait\")\nsleep(5)\nprint(\"Wait is over\")\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Output:<\/strong> Start: Wait
Wait is over<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Python waits for input user Input <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Here is an example where use Enter a name then program will reply in 5 seconds. You have to import <\/a>a time module to use a sleep() function<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For taking an input from a user, use in-build function input<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
import time\n\nname = input('Please Enter Your Name \\n')\n\nprint('Wait ', 5, 'seconds for reply.')\ntime.sleep(5)\n\nprint('Hi', name, ', How are you, I am bot!')<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Output:<\/strong> check this gif image file<\/p>\n\n\n\n
