Description¶
This is a very simple algorithm that does nothing for a given number of seconds.
This can be used during debugging, for example, to slow down the execution of a fast script.
Usage¶
Example - Pausing for a time:
import time
start_time = time.time()
Pause(0.05)
end_time = time.time()
print("The algorithm paused for {:.2f} seconds.".format(end_time-start_time))
Output:
The algorithm paused for ... seconds.
