if you pass a callback function that can accept parameter into setInterval but you didn't pass in the parameter for it. It will pass random numbers into the callback function when it wasn't suppose to.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. declare a function that accepts parameter
2. pass the function identify into setTimeout/setInterval

This is expected, the functions pass in an extra argument that specifies how early/late the callback was invoked.
