python - Timer, countdown, time -

i want, on def 'usecaps', repeat 5 seconds. example, after 5 seconds repeats def 'usecaps' after 5 seconds repeats def again , on...

here code:

def mobber(self):     global mobber      if mobber == 0:         mobber = 1          self.enablemobber() #jump enablemobber         else:            mobber = 0         self.disablemobber()      def enablemobber(self):     self.mobberbutton.settext("deactivate")     self.time.editlinedelaytime.gettext())     self.usecape()  def usecape(self):     in xrange(player.inventory_page_size*3):         braverycape = player.getitemindex(i)         if braverycape == 70038:             net.senditemusepacket(i)             break 

i have tried using time.sleep.

i wrote class has function every 5 seconds. used while loop , modular arithmetic.

import time class the_class():     def __init__(self):         self.counter=0;       def some_function(self,counter):         x="i function, doing things!"         if self.counter%2 == 0: # if uppercase             return x.upper()         else:                   #(here self.counter%2 ==1  , odd lowercase)             return x.lower()      def a_while_loop(self):         while 1==1: #so loop goes on , on because true.             time.sleep(5)              print self.some_function(self.counter)             self.counter+=1    the_class=the_class() the_class.a_while_loop()
