class Neuron { fire() { console.log("Firing!"); } Function.prototype.myThrottle = function(interval) { // declare a variable outside of the returned function let tooSoon = false; return (...args) => { // the function only gets invoked if tooSoon is false // it sets tooSoon to true, and uses setTimeout to set it back to // false after interval ms // any invocation within this interval will skip the if // statement and do nothing if (!tooSoon) { tooSoon = true; setTimeout(() => tooSoon = false, interval); this(...args); // confused what this piece of code does. } } function printFire(){ return neuron.fire()} const neuron = new Neuron(); neuron.fire = neuron.fire.myThrottle(500); const interval = setInterval(printFire, 10); This piece of code will output "Firing!, once every 500ms". My confusion is when I comment "const interval = setInterval(printFire, 10) ", The code does not run at all. I feel const interval should no...
