Grid Redstone.png  Function os.sleep
Pauses the computer for a number of seconds. Fractions of a second are supported, but only down to a game tick, or 1/20 of a second (0.05s). Times are rounded up to the next tick, so os.sleep(1.01) and os.sleep(1.05) both wait for 1.05 seconds.
Syntax os.sleep(timeout)
Returns nil
Part of ComputerCraft
API os
