Show a slow simulation using Thread.Sleep() [closed]

Answer 1

Don't use Thread.Sleep() as it freezes the UI, rather you can do the same work by implementing your own Asynchronous method.

You can also achieve the same by using Timers.

This is an example on how to manage tasks asynchronously. Suppose, this is my method Perform()

private async Task Perform()
{
    lbl1.BackColor = Color.Red;    
    lbl2.BackColor = Color.Red;
    await Task.Delay(2000);

    lbl1.Text = val1.ToString();  
    lbl2.Text = val2.ToString();
    await Task.Delay(2000);

    lbl1.BackColor = Color.LightSeaGreen;  //changed to lightseagreen as the green you used
    lbl2.BackColor = Color.LightSeaGreen;  //was hurting my eyes :P
}

and I call it in an event say, on a button_click event.

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Task t = Perform();
}

                                                       The output will be like:
