Python Automation - Scheduling tasks for specific days or timeframes

Python is a powerful language that helps with automating tasks from file backups, running commands or transferring server files.

In this script is a simple example of how Python can be used to schedule a task. For illustrative purposes the function here being called is wait() which in essence does nothing but literally sleep for 1 second as it waits to print ("jason"). The function can tell the system to do a backup of all user's files, or perhaps check inventory levels or to send weekly reports to certain people. The possibilities are endless but the building block is here and the essential and great part is that I can create a python program to automate tasks and routines to run once every few seconds or once every week.
