[Tutor] schedulers

[nathan tech]

Hi there,

I recently started working on a backup program, and the one big feature 
everyone wants in backup programs is the ability to schedule backups, right?

but I'm thinking, should I do this?

def do_backup

  # backup code here, without prints to screen or anything so it just 
does it in the background...


def scheduler():

  global tus # tus=time until schedule

  while(time.time()>tus):

   time.sleep(5)

  scheduler()


Is that wise? Is that how it should be done?

This is a program for windows.

Thanks!

Nathan
