note 55166 added to function.time-nanosleep

This is an alternative function to sleep_nanosecond that you can use with PHP versions below PHP 5.0. It is not very accurate if we talk about nanoseconds but the results are satisfatory. Enjoy! <?php //THIS IS THE FUNCTION WE ARE TALKIN ABOUT function timeWait($microtime) { $timeLimit = $microtime + array_sum(explode(" ",microtime())); while(array_sum(explode(" ",microtime())) < $timeLimit) {/*DO NOTHING*/} return(true); } //THIS IS HOW WE CAN USE IT echo "Process started at " . date("H:i:s") . " and " . current(explode(" ",microtime())) . " nanoseconds.<br>"; timeWait(5.5); //With this call the system will wait 5 seconds and a half. You can use either integer or float. echo "Process completed at " . date("H:i:s") . " and " . current(explode(" ",microtime())) . " nanoseconds."; ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.time-nanosleep.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55166 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55166&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55166&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55166&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55166&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55166&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55166&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55166&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
