I tried the solution given here ( Undefined reference to "sleep" but I did include <unistd.h> ) but it’s still not working. I am using gcc on Ubuntu 12.04.

Answer 1

Your code seems to come from Windows operating system. On Linux, the function Sleep does not exist (Sleep is a function from Windows API!). Try sleep (from <unistd.h>) instead. As alk said, keep in mind the arguments of Sleep and sleep are different:

• Sleep takes a time in milliseconds;
• sleep takes a time in seconds.

Likewise, the getch function and the cls shell command don’t work with GNU/Linux.
