How can I execute a statement after a certain amount of time in C#?

Question

In one case I want to give the user a chance to input information, but if they don't after a few milliseconds I want the code to continue.

In the second case I simply want a delay between output statements. How do I do this?

Answer 1

Use :

Thread.sleep( the number of milliseconds to wait )

For example :

int waitForMilliseconds = 1000 ; // which is one second

Thread.sleep( waitForMilliseconds )
