I have something code like:

for(var i=0; i<1000; i++)
{
    do_something();
    if(i == 500)
    {
        //STOP THIS FOR LOOP FOR 2s
        do_this_function();

    }
}

How can i simulate this STOP? This stop should work only when i is 500, in other i should just do for loop. I tried use setTimeout, delay, wait, but this stop just this function, dont stop the entire loop.

Maybe should i use recursive function instead of for? Is there another way?

in Jquery, you can add SetTimeOut(function(){},500) to add delay – Harjeet Singh Mar 17 '17 at 11:14
you can use for(var i=0; i<1000; i++) { do_something(); if(i == 500) { wait(2000); //STOP THIS FOR LOOP FOR 2s do_this_function(); } } – Ajay Malhotra Mar 17 '17 at 11:16
wait is not defined :( – Warmix Mar 17 '17 at 12:14
