How do you do basically a delay in java? in turing its delay (int) so how would you draw a circle movinng around in an applet? I can make it move but you can barley see it because it does not delay. Thanks |

hehe, well one thing is for sure every time u run that code it will have a different delay. my suggestion use the languages builtin delay mechanism all u need to do is call the method public static void Thread.sleep(long milliseconds), passing it a long value as the number of milliseconds u want the "main thread" of ur program to stop execution. It effectively is the same as turing's delay, but a little bit different in concept. |
