How to create a delay before each print?

Hi so I'm creating a text-based game with Python and I want to make it so that before each print statement there is a one second delay.

My current solution is to do this:

time.sleep(1)
name = input('Do you happen to remember what your name was? ').capitalize()
print(name + ", that's a nice name.")
time.sleep(1)
print("Well it seems that you are all better now so I'm going to have to let you go")

However, it is annoying to put a time.sleep before each print!

So I'm wondering if anyone knows a more efficient way of doing this.

Solution

  • why not use function to do it? 

    def dprint(s, delay=1):
    time.sleep(delay)
    print(s)

    Is it ok for you?

    dprint("hello")
