Having problems using setInterval on a function which has a parameter. Help please.

Hi folks.
I tried to use setInterval like this but it did not work

setInterval ( removeitem (theitem)
{
theitem.style.d isplay= "none";
},
1000 );

the function without the setInterval is

function removeitem(thei tem)
{
theitem.style.d isplay="none";
}

At line this.timerId = setInterval (function(){this.step()}, 100) I get error dialog Error:Object doesn't support this property or method. If I change it to this.timerId = setInterval (function(){this==window}, 100) I see true, the sad fact that 'this' is window and not an anim. What are some proper ways ? I would like to avoid

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
