Time Functions:

1. Getting the Current Time:

JavaScript
const now = new Date();
console.log(`${now.getHours()}:${now.getMinutes()}:${now.getSeconds()}`);
// e.g., "14:30:15"

2. setTimeout:

Executes a function after a specified delay.

JavaScript
setTimeout(() => {
    console.log("This message is displayed after 2 seconds");
}, 2000);

3. clearInterval:

The clearInterval() function in JavaScript is used to stop the execution of a function that was previously established by the setInterval() method.

JavaScript
let count = 0;
  let intervalID = setInterval(function () {
    count++;
    document.getElementById("count").textContent = count;
  }, 1000); // Increase count every second

  function stopCounting() {
    clearInterval(intervalID); // Stop the interval
    alert("Counting stopped at: " + count);
  }

4. setInterval:

Repeats execution of a function at a specified interval.

JavaScript
let count = 0;
const intervalId = setInterval(() => {
    count++;
    console.log(`Count: ${count}`);
    if (count === 5) {
        clearInterval(intervalId); // Stops the interval
    }
}, 1000);
