msleep {nanonext} | R Documentation |
Sleep function. May block for longer than requested, with the actual wait time determined by the capabilities of the underlying system.
msleep(time)
time |
integer number of milliseconds to block the caller. |
Non-integer values for ‘time’ are coerced to integer. Negative, logical and other non-numeric values are ignored, causing the function to return immediately.
Note that unlike Sys.sleep
, this function is not
user-interruptible by sending SIGINT e.g. with ctrl + c.
Invisible NULL.
time <- mclock(); msleep(100); mclock() - time
