Sleep in seconds, minutes, hours or days. Very short and simple. No more calculations like how many miliseconds are in 2 hours?

Sleep(n,u) { ; Sleep in seconds, minutes, hours or days. By Learning one, SKAN and MasterFocus.
	Sleep, % ( n*1000* (((u:=SubStr(u,1,1))="s") ? 1 : (u="m") ? 60 : (u="h") ? 3600 : (u="d") ? 86400 : 0 ))
}

/*
; Examples:
Sleep(3, "seconds") 	; (seconds,second,sec,s --> all the same)
Sleep(1, "min")			; (minutes,minute,min,m --> all the same)
Sleep(1, "h")			; (hours,hour,h --> all the same)
Sleep(0.5, "day")		; (days,day,d --> all the same)
*/

Original version:

Sleep(number,unit) {	; Sleep in seconds, minutes, hours or days. By Learning one.
	Static u := "s1000|m60000|h3600000|d86400000"
	Loop, parse, u, |
	{
		if (SubStr(A_LoopField,1,1) = SubStr(unit,1,1))
		Sleep, % number*SubStr(A_LoopField,2)
	}
}

good.thank you.

Ternary based...

Sleep( n,u ) {
 Sleep, % SubStr( u := SubStr( u,1,1 ), 1, 0 ) . ( n * ( (u="s") ? 1000 : (u="m") ? 60000
        : (u="h") ? 3600000 : (u="d") ? 86400000 : 0 ))
}

very usefull thank you!

@SKAN: Wouldn't the inner SubStr be enough?

Sleep( n,u ) {
 Sleep, % ( n*[color=red]1000*[/color] ( ([color=red](u:=SubStr(u,1,1))[/color]="s") ? [color=red]1[/color] : (u="m") ? [color=red]60[/color]
        : (u="h") ? [color=red]3600[/color] : (u="d") ? [color=red]86400[/color] : 0 ))
}

@MasterFocus: Neat!.. I love it

Here's my take:

Sleep(n, u="s")
{
	Sleep % n * ((u := SubStr(u, 1, 1)) = "s" ? 1000
	            : u = "m" ? 60000
	            : u = "h" ? 3600000
	            : u = "d" ? 86400000
	            : 0)
}

Just because it is compact doesn't mean it has to be unreadable.

1. post updated with short version.

P.S. maybe suggestion for Sleep command in AHK_L:
Sleep, delay [, unit]
