• typewriter() - Prints a line of text with a typewriter effect (one character at a time).
• random_string() - Generates a random string of a specified length.
• sort_dict_keys() - Sorts a dictionary by its keys.
• sort_dict_values() - Sorts a dictionary by its values.
• swap_keys_values() - Swaps the keys and values of a dictionary.
• reverse() - Reverses a list, string, or dictionary.

• Progress.finish(message): Finishes the progress bar (with an optional message).
• Progress.timed(seconds, character, message): Starts a progress bar that counts down from a specified amount of time.

For example:

my_progress = Wait.Progress(100)
my_progress.start()
for i in range(100):
    run_some_code()
    my_progress.update(i + 1)
my_progress.finish()

or for a timed progress bar:

my_progress = Wait.Progress.timed(10)
