sleep: Delay in [m]inutes. (Other units [d]ay, [h]our, [s]econd, [inf]inity can also be used).
$ sleep ${minutes}m
try on your machine
The command "sleep" is used to pause the execution of a script or the command line for a specified amount of time.
In this specific command, "${minutes}m" is used to define the duration of the pause.
Let's break it down:
-
"${minutes}" represents a variable that holds the value of the desired duration in minutes. This variable can be replaced with an actual value, such as "5" for 5 minutes.
-
"m" is added after "${minutes}" to indicate that the value represents minutes. This is required as "sleep" operates by default in seconds. The "m" signifies minutes, while "s" would represent seconds.
For example, if you have the variable "minutes" set to 5, the command "sleep ${minutes}m" would pause the execution for 5 minutes.
