Fatima is creating a program she wants to ask to use a question and then have a 30-second pause before the user is allowed to input and answer which line of code should Fatima use

To implement a 30-second pause before allowing the user to input an answer in a Python program, Fatima can use the time module to create the delay. Here’s a simple example of how to do this:

import time

# Ask the question
print("What is your favorite color?")

# Wait for 30 seconds
time.sleep(30)

# Now allow user to input an answer
answer = input("Please enter your answer: ")

print("Your answer is:", answer)

In this code:

  1. The question is printed to the console.
  2. The program pauses for 30 seconds using time.sleep(30).
  3. After the pause, the program takes the user's input.

Make sure to run this code in an environment where you can see the output and interact with the program.
