.. function:: sleep(secs)
- Suspend execution for the given number of seconds. The argument may be a
- floating point number to indicate a more precise sleep time. The actual
- suspension time may be less than that requested because any caught signal will
- terminate the :func:`sleep` following execution of that signal's catching
- routine. Also, the suspension time may be longer than requested by an arbitrary
- amount because of the scheduling of other activity in the system.
