[ale] Perl

[bkruger at mindspring.com (Bob Kruger)]

Here is a question for the PERL gurus;

When running from a shell, we have a program name "sleep" that will allow
us to time how long we want to make a system wait before going to the next
line in the program.

Example - "sleep 10s" will cause a system to wait 10 seconds before
executing the next line in the script.

Is there a similar function in Perl?

Thanks in advance.
