I am in the process of setting up a motor-control experiment which
needs exact delays in the millisecond range. The TURBOC manual says
that the delay() procedure may not always be accurate to the millisecond.
If this is so, when is it not? Secondly, how is an accurate delay
on the order of milliseconds generated if the timer clock only clicks
about once every 57 milliseconds?
