If I wanted to have a counter that counted up to 30 seconds and then closed the program. How would I do that?

I did. It says, "This command will get the internal system time which continually increments at a thousand times per second. The system time is returned in milliseconds where 1000 units represent 1 second." But that doesn't help me any because I don't know how to get it to count 30 seconds and then end the program.
