[C++] Making a timed loop - theChive - Feb 2, 2016
I want to make a loop in C++ that prints a string every...lets say 30 seconds.
I'm learning Obj-C programming now and want to tackle the project above.
I started looking around and am not sure if I'm on the right path.
Code
#include <math.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <iostream>
int main(){
clock_t x;
x = clock();
std::cout<<"Hello";
return 0;
}Please send me a helping hand! 👍

I used 5 seconds just to test it, but you can replace it with 30. It's based on the C++ 2011 standard, so you'll have to probably compile in regards to that:
Code
#include <iostream>
#include <chrono>
#include <thread>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int i;
for(i = 0; i < 10; i++){
cout << i << endl;
std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(5));
}
return 0;
