#140232 - Well, yes, actually...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Just seeing it formalized like that helps on several levels. First, it vastly clarifies my own muddled thoughts on the issue; second, it gives me a potential insight into what's considered good practices in this field. I'm a co-op student, and I'm apparently expected to know this stuff instinctively; every little bit helps.

Thought from a newbie: this structure implies that it's considered better to keep the main loop going as fast as possible and check for time elapsed to perform actions, rather than stalling the main loop for that amount of time?

Many Thanks,
Bob Robertson
