Floating point numbers can be given as the argument to `sleep()` for more precise sleep times. When using sleep, you can define the amount of time that the program is suspended using either an integer (a whole number) or a float (a number with decimal places), depending on the level of control you want over the time that the program sleeps. For example, `time.sleep(10)` would suspend a program for 10 seconds, while `time.sleep(5.5)` would suspend a program for five and a half seconds.
