instance method Function#delay

Function#delay(seconds[, args...]) → Number
  • seconds (Number) – How long to wait before calling the function.

Schedules the function to run after the specified amount of time, passing any arguments given.

Behaves much like window.setTimeout. Returns an integer ID that can be used to clear the timeout with window.clearTimeout before it runs.

To schedule a function to run as soon as the interpreter is idle, use Function#defer.
