I got it so it does it for as many iterations as you
specify, but I was hoping to get it so it could do it
continiously until someone hits enter. Like, maybe I
could start it on Friday, sometime, without any
concern for how many iterations it does per second,
and on monday, I can just hit enter to terminate it,
and get the run time statistics of it, thus far. Or
maybe just do it until I need to reboot the computer -
I could just hit enter, and reboot...
Anyhow, someone suggested that I do it with threads...
how would I do this?
