Hello!

I have a question to the delay-statement.

The simple code below doesn't wait 6
seconds before drawing.

Why is that so?

Besides: If I want to wait
30 Minutes, can I still work with int
or what type do I have to use that
allows for greater values?

Is their a beep-sound or something
as in Visual Basic?

Is there a MsgBox as in Visual Basic?
Thanks,

All Help is appreciated.

Greetings,

Chris


size(200, 200);
background(0);

int a1;

a1 = 1000 * 6;

println("Wait");
delay ( a1 );
println("End wait");


for(int i=10; i<width; i+=10) {
 // If 'i' divides by 20 with no remainder draw the first line
 // else draw the second line
 if(i%20 == 0) {
   stroke(153);
   line(i, 40, i, height/2);
 } else {
   stroke(102);
   line(i, 20, i, 180);
 }
}
