Python | Adding Delays with Time Sleep

With the Time module's Sleep function you can incorporate a time delay in a process whether it be to render some information outside the program or to temporarily pause the process.

To give a delay we will first import the time module which is a built-in module and pass the parameter for seconds of delay we want to incorporate.

You can write also from time import sleep.And then for delay just write sleep("delay")

When I put time.sleep(1) in a function it doesn’t do anything. It runs the program as if it isn’t there but I can use it when it’s not in a function. Someone help?
