如何在 python 中每 n 秒重复 x 次？

Question

Let's say, i want a beeping sound be heard a total of 5 times, with 5 second break with each beep. For that, i tried using threading module, and made this:

import threading
import winsound
i = 0
def beep():
   global i
   while i < 5:
         i += 1
         threading.Timer(5.0, beep).start()
         winsound.PlaySound("beep", winsound.SND_FILENAME)

beep()

This code repeats it succesfully i amount of times, but ignores a time interval and instead does it on a much faster, equally distributed unchangeable interval. I know that happens because of how while loop works, but I cant seem to find any alternative. Every piece of information would come in handy!

Answer 1

use time module

import time

time.sleep(int x in seconds)

Answer 2

I got this to work ok:

import threading
import winsound

def beep(n):
    if n == 0:
        return
    for i in range(5):
        winsound.Beep(4000,100)
    threading.Timer(5.0, beep, args=(n-1,)).start()

beep(4)
