Changing a boolean variable 10 secs after page load

Question

How can I allow it to be true first then after 10 secs, it will become false?

MemoryGame.Card = function(value) {
this.value = value;
this.isRevealed = false;

this.reveal = function() {
this.isRevealed = true;
}

this.conceal = function() {
this.isRevealed = false;
}
};

use `setTimeout` https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WindowOrWorkerGlobalScope/setTimeout — Martin Adámek, Oct 30 '17 at 12:22
You can use the setTimeout function to wait 10 seconds and then do something to change it. — ADyson, Oct 30 '17 at 12:23

You can look at Window setTimeout() Method. So your code may be something like:

window.setTimeout(function() { conceal(); }, 10000);

you shouldn't make an anonymous function just to call another function. You should do this window.setTimeout(conceal(), 10000); – Cody Fortenberry Oct 30 '17 at 12:29
