1. setTimeout

Definition:
- The setTimeout function is used to execute a function or a block of code
once after a specified delay (in milliseconds).

2. setInterval

Definition:
- The setInterval function is used to repeatedly execute a function or a block
of code at specified intervals (in milliseconds).

3. clearTimeout

Definition:
- The clearTimeout function is used to cancel a timeout that was previously
set with setTimeout. It prevents the function passed to setTimeout from
executing.

4. clearInterval

Definition:
- The clearInterval function is used to cancel a repeated action that was
previously set with setInterval. It stops the function passed to setInterval
from executing repeatedly.
