setInterval(callback: (...args: TArgs) => void, delay?: number, ...args: any): number

The setInterval() method repeatedly calls a function, with a fixed time delay between each call. This method returns an interval ID which uniquely identifies the interval, so you can remove it later by calling clearInterval().

The time, in milliseconds, that the timer should delay in between calls of the specified function. Defaults to 0 if not specified.
