An interval in AngularJS is a time based function that is used to schedule tasks to run at a certain time. It can be used to create a timer, or to execute a function at a certain time interval.

Example code

  console.log("Hello World!");
}, 1000);

Hello World!
Hello World!

The code above will print "Hello World!" every one second.
