In this post, I am going to write a very simple C program to increment the number by a given value every second. This program also helps you to understand how to use the sleep() function in the C language.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 |
#include<stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(void) { //declare variables int num = 0; int increment; //get the increment number from user printf("Enter increment value:"); scanf("%d", &increment); //loop till the 'num' value equals to 100, we'll add the 'increment' number every 1 second and print it. while(num <= 100) { sleep(1); // Wait for a second num += increment; // add the 'num' value with the 'increment' printf("%d\n", num); // Print the current value of num } return 0; } |
Example Output of the above program is here,

Enter increment value:5 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 95 100 -------------------------------- Process exited after 23.76 seconds with return value 0 Press any key to continue . . . |
I believe this post would have helped you to understand how to use the sleep() function in C programming.
