		| SLEEP(3)                   Linux Programmer's Manual                SLEEP(3)
 
 
 
 NAME
 
 sleep - Sleep for the specified number of seconds
 
 SYNOPSIS
 
 #include <unistd.h>
 
 unsigned int sleep(unsigned int seconds);
 
 DESCRIPTION
 
 sleep()  makes  the  current  process  sleep until seconds seconds have elapsed or a signal arrives which is not ignored.
 
 RETURN VALUE
 
 Zero if the requested time has elapsed, or the number of  seconds  left
 to sleep.
 
 CONFORMING TO POSIX.1
 
 BUGS
 
 sleep()  may  be implemented using SIGALRM; mixing calls to alarm() and
 sleep() is a bad idea.
 
 Using longjmp() from a signal handler  or  modifying  the  handling  of SIGALRM while sleeping will cause undefined results.
 
 SEE ALSO
 
 signal(2), alarm(2)
