/**
 * 2805. Custom Interval
 * https://leetcode.com/problems/custom-interval/
 * Difficulty: Medium
 *
 * Function customInterval
 *
 * Given a function fn, a number delay and a number period, return a number id.
 *
 * customInterval is a function that should execute the provided function fn at intervals based
 * on a linear pattern defined by the formula delay + period * count.
 *
 * The count in the formula represents the number of times the interval has been executed
 * starting from an initial value of 0.
 *
 * Function customClearInterval
 *
 * Given the id. id is the returned value from the function customInterval.
 *
 * customClearInterval should stop executing provided function fn at intervals.
 *
 * Note: The setTimeout and setInterval functions in Node.js return an object, not a number.
