Correct way to pause a Python program
python, sleep
Solution
It seems fine to me (or `raw_input()` in Python 2.X). Alternatively, you could use `time.sleep()` if you want to pause for a certain number of seconds.
import time
print("something")
time.sleep(5.5) # Pause 5.5 seconds
print("something")
Problem
I've been using the `input` function as a way to pause my scripts: ``` print("something") wait = input("Press Enter to continue.") print("something") ``` Is there a formal way to do this?
