I would expect the following script: use strict; use warnings; print 8*8; sleep 3; print 7*7;
To behave as follows. 1. print 64. 2. pause 3 seconds. 3. print 49. Instead the behavior is: 1. pause 3 seconds. 2. print 64. 3. print 49. Why is that, and how do I insert a pause in between these two print commands (as an example)? BTW, I did perldoc -f sleep. If it explains this behavior, I didn't understand it.
