[R/Python] How to make a ring, at some designated time?

Discussion in 'App Development' started by jk90029, Jun 9, 2016.

  1. Dear-

    Many traders are interested in exact time alarm. For example
    He want hear everyday

    1) at 8:00, "8 o'clock"
    2) at 9:20, "10 minurs to open"
    3) at 12:00, "go for a lunch to survive"
    4) at 3:30, "30 minutes to close"

    Is it possible to use R/Python to write a code, for the above?
    Of course one can change his own choice of time, and should click one time to start early morning.

    I heard this is available in Excel VB or C#.

    Thanks in advance.

    If I understand your question correctly, what you want is a basic alarm clock program. Python can definitely handle it as it comes with a very comprehensive standard library of functions and procedures. If you want some code examples, simply google "python alarm clock".

    Hope it helps.

  4. Google search for R timer shows
    http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/r/faq/timing_code.htm

    However, I wonder if R allows multi instance. (We should use other R command while some program is working)

    I remember UNIX platform allows multi instance with commands "Do this &&".
    Someone know if Windows aloows / Linux allows this....???
