+/**
+ * `throttle` function creates a throttled version of a function that can only be invoked at most once per specified time period.
+ * Unlike `debounce`, throttle ensures the function is called at regular intervals during continuous invocations, rather than waiting for a pause.
+ * This is useful for rate-limiting expensive operations like scroll handlers, window resizing, or API calls.
+ *
+ * The throttled function supports `leading` and `trailing` edge execution:
+ * - `leading`: Execute immediately on the first call
+ * - `trailing`: Execute at the end of the throttle period with the latest arguments
+ *
+ * The throttled function includes a `.cancel()` method to cancel any pending trailing invocations.
+ *
+ * @example
+ * Basic usage (default options - both leading and trailing):
+ * ```ts
+ * const throttled = throttle((val: number) => {
+ *   console.log('val', val);
+ * }, 1000);
+ *
+ * throttled(1); // immediately logs: val 1
+ * throttled(2); // ignored
+ * throttled(3); // ignored
+ * // After 1000ms, logs: val 3 (trailing call with latest args)
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @example
+ * Leading edge only (useful for preventing rapid repeated actions):
+ * ```ts
+ * const throttled = throttle((val: number) => {
+ *   console.log('val', val);
+ * }, 1000, { leading: true, trailing: false });
+ *
+ * throttled(1); // immediately logs: val 1
+ * throttled(2); // ignored
+ * throttled(3); // ignored
+ * // After 1000ms, nothing happens
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @example
+ * Trailing edge only (useful for batch processing):
+ * ```ts
+ * const throttled = throttle((val: number) => {
+ *   console.log('val', val);
+ * }, 1000, { leading: false, trailing: true });
+ *
+ * throttled(1); // delayed
+ * throttled(2); // delayed
+ * throttled(3); // delayed
+ * // After 1000ms, logs: val 3 (only the latest value)
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @example
+ * Canceling pending throttled invocations:
+ * ```ts
+ * const throttled = throttle((val: number) => {
+ *   console.log('val', val);
+ * }, 1000);
+ *
+ * throttled(1); // immediately logs: val 1
+ * throttled(2);
+ * throttled(3);
+ * throttled.cancel(); // cancels pending trailing invocation
+ * // Nothing happens after 1000ms
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @example
+ * Real-world use case - throttling scroll events:
+ * ```ts
+ * const handleScroll = throttle(() => {
+ *   console.log('Scroll position:', window.scrollY);
+ * }, 200);
+ *
+ * window.addEventListener('scroll', handleScroll);
+ *
+ * // The handler will fire immediately on first scroll,
+ * // then at most once every 200ms during continuous scrolling,
+ * // and once more after scrolling stops (trailing edge)
+ * ```
