I'm looking for a way to have an integer be constantly incremented every 10 seconds or so. I know how to get the integer to increment, but I don't know how to get it to continue to increment no matter what else is currently occurring in the rest of the program.

Using C++11 style:
#include <atomic>
#include <iostream>
#include <thread>
int main()
{
std::atomic<int> i{0};
std::thread thread_time([&]() { while (true) { ++i; std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(10)); } });
while (true) {
std::cout << i.load() << std::endl;
std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(10));
}
thread_time.join();
return 0;
}
Use
std::thread
for this.Create a function
Now from
main
