I just wanted to know whether any timer facility exists in C, as it is
not mentioned in K&R 2, or in the ISO Draft. By timer function i mean
that when we use standard input function like scanf() or getch() or
any other function, the interface stops to take input from user but
what if user doesn't give input for hours, the program will still be
waiting. Is there any way to circumvent the scanf() (or any other
input function for that matter) so that it takes some default input or
no input and just proceeds to the next line of the execution assuming
input from user as nothing and acts accordingly.
yes their exists a time delaying facility under c
No, there doesn't.
the *delay()* function which delay the output on the the screen
....does not exist in C.
the time of declared in side bracesthis function is defined in dos.h
....which also does not exist in C.
Your toy compiler may include it, but that doesn't mean it will work on
a real computer. Especially when it's called "dos.h".
