So i want to execute a function by click on a btn <a></a>. But I want to authorize the execution of the function only X seconds after having executed it the first time. That my code :

• HTML

<a onclick="skipCard('left')"></a>

• Javascript

function skipCard(direction=['left', 'right']) {
    if(direction == 'left') {
        console.log('go left')
    } else if (direction == 'right') {
        console.log('go right')
    }
}
