  import math
  import datetime
  import ChatAIStream as cas
  
  # print sentence by a character incrementally.
  def print_incremental(st, interval_sec):
    for i in range(len(st)):
      if not running:
        break
      print(f"{st[i]}", end='')
      sys.stdout.flush()
      interruptible_sleep(interval_sec)
  
  # Customized sleep for making available of running flag interruption.
  def interruptible_sleep(time_sec):
    counter = math.floor(time_sec / 0.10)
    frac = time_sec - (counter * 0.10)
    for i in range(counter):
      if not running:
        break
      time.sleep(0.10)
    if not running:
      return
    time.sleep(frac)

    message = completion.choices[0]["message"]["content"]
    print(f"[ChatGPT {time_str}] ", end='')
    print_incremental(message, 0.05)
    print("\n")

• Default value of interval_sec is 20.0, since free user of OpenAI API can get only 3 completions per minitue.
• The system role given by user remains ever as the oldest sentence of current context even if the number of messages is reached to the maximum, so ChatGPT doesn't forgot the role while current cunversation.
