Sleep function in Windows, using C

Question

I need to sleep my program in Windows. What header file has the sleep function?

Answer 1

Include the following function at the start of your code, whenever you want to busy wait. This is distinct from sleep, because the process will be utilizing 100% cpu while this function is running.

void sleep(unsigned int mseconds)
{
    clock_t goal = mseconds + clock();
    while (goal > clock())
        ;
}

Note that the name sleep for this function is misleading, since the CPU will not be sleeping at all.
