I have this counter I made but I want it to run forever, it's really simple, what am I doing wrong here?
function timer() {
console.log("timer!")
}
window.setInterval(timer(), 1000)
You used a function call instead of a function reference as the first parameter of the setInterval. Do it like this:
function timer() {
console.log("timer!");
}
window.setInterval(timer, 1000);
Or shorter (but when the function gets bigger also less readable):
window.setInterval( function() {
console.log("timer!");
}, 1000)
Or even shorter, using an arrow function expression:
window.setInterval(() => {
console.log("timer!");
}, 1000)
