Timers
Examples in
Go
Timers represent a single event in the future. You tell the timer how long you want to wait, and it provides a channel that will be notified at that time.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
)
func main() {
timer1 := time.NewTimer(2 * time.Second)
<-timer1.C
fmt.Println("Timer 1 expired")
timer2 := time.NewTimer(time.Second)
go func() {
<-timer2.C
fmt.Println("Timer 2 expired")
}()
stop2 := timer2.Stop()
if stop2 {
fmt.Println("Timer 2 stopped")
}
}
