place any number between 0.1 and 0.9 (using the dot)

This should work

Follow up: You can put has many zeros as you want, have there the decimal point. So, yes you can wait 0.000000000001 seconds…

Just adding that any number between 0 and 1, including 0 will also work. A zero second wait will still take a very small amount of time to run and in some cases, it’s enough to slow down a loop to allow the blocks within to complete their code.
