delay	function,intermediate	Deepak Vishwakarma	https://github.com/deepakshrma	https://avatars2.githubusercontent.com/u/7682731?s=400	Implementation of "delay" in typescript, javascript and deno.	https://www.positronx.io/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/positronx-banner-1152-1.jpg

Invokes the provided function after wait milliseconds.

Use setTimeout() to delay execution of fn. Use the spread (...) operator to supply the function with an arbitrary number of arguments.

const delay = (fn: Func, wait: number, ...args: any[]) =>
  setTimeout(fn, wait, ...args);

// Return a promise, Resolve after `wait` milliseconds.
const delayedPromise = (wait: number = 300, ...args: any[]) =>
  new Promise((resolve) => {
    delay(resolve, wait, ...args);
  });

delay(
  function (text) {
    console.log(text);
  },
  1000,
  "later"
); // Logs 'later' after one second.

// delayedPromise
let counter = 0;
const updateState = () => {
  counter++;
};
const debouncedUpdate = debounce(updateState);
debouncedUpdate(); // counter == 1
debouncedUpdate(); // counter == 1
await delayedPromise(); // counter == 1
assertEquals(counter, 1);
