Delay(), vs "soft delay" [end of discourse]

Thanks for the fast response, but I was really hoping for some code ( or pseudocode) to do the two different processes I suggested. One process can work well with just the delay() command I think, but not two. What do you think?

I think

 loop(){
   delay(5000);   
    //--do something every 5 seconds here
 }

Would work fine. but what if you wanted to run the two processes such as I suggested. How could we code that?
