#clearTimeout() global function

Cancel the timer set by setTimeout.

#Syntax

  clearTimeout(timerId: number): void;

#Parameter

#timerId

The timer ID returned by setTimeout. If the timer corresponding to this ID has already finished executing, the method will not perform any action.

** Passing in an ID value that is not returned by setTimeout is undefined behavior and may cause problems. **

#Example

#Notes

1. setTimeout() and setInterval() have a shared pool of ID numbers, so technically clearTimeout() and clearInterval() are interchangeable. However, for clarity, you should avoid doing so.

#Compatibility
