So, your question is... what?

[alaba81]

my question is i need code to delay the runtime of the above code

Maybe the Sleep function will be of help to you?

Hello, you could try inserting this code:

for (unsigned int i = 0; i < 40; ++i) // change i < 40 for your needs
{
    functioncall();
    sleep(1); // wait 1 second 
}
