Answer 1

The clearInterval() method can be used to clear a timer set with the setInterval() method.

setInterval always returns a ID value. This value can be passed in clearInterval() to stop the timer. Here is an example of timer starting from 30 and stops when it becomes 0.

  let time = 30;
  const timeValue = setInterval((interval) => {
  time = this.time - 1;
  if (time <= 0) {
    clearInterval(timeValue);
  }
}, 1000);
