    import { Canister, Duration, ic, TimerId, Tuple, update } from 'azle';

    export default Canister({
        setTimers: update([Duration], Tuple(TimerId, TimerId), (delay) => {
            const functionTimerId = ic.setTimer(delay, callback);

            const capturedValue = '🚩';

            const closureTimerId = ic.setTimer(delay, () => {
                console.log(`closure called and captured value ${capturedValue}`);
            });

            return [functionTimerId, closureTimerId];
        })
    });

    function callback() {
        console.log('callback called');
