Godot delta is acting very weird

So I am working on a game with Godot. It is an infinite runner, so I need to spawn in a platform ahead of the player every few seconds. The timer node was confusing, so I just made a variable and added delta to it in _process. However, It didn't seem to work. Then I tried assigning a variable to delta and then printing delta and the variable, like this:

print(delta)
de = delta
print(de)

then I get an output like this:

0.16667 0 0.16667 0

which signifies that delta isn't being added to a variable. What can I do to try and fix this and why is it happening?

I believe you wanted this:

var timer = 0.0

func _process(delta):
    timer += delta
    if timer > 1.0: # after one second passed
        # reset the timer and do something here
        timer = 0.0
