Hi guys , above code is such a code that I have a video tag in it

When you play video ,I have added the addlistener timeupdate on it,that means every time the current video duration changes a function is called !

Then function that us called does this thing :
It checks if the current video duration is greater than the 40% of the total duration then it calls other function saying :
console.log("+1 added to total views")
But every time if video current duration is great then the 40% of total video duration it called function again again saying +1 added
But i want the function to be called only once if the video duration is greater than the 40% of total duration

To make it easy 4 u guys to understand
It's simple
I'm calling a function if the video has been watched or current duration is greater than the 40% of total video duration then it has to called a function that adds +1 to views count
But I'm using greater than it calls function multipleTime

Hello,

I guess removing the eventListener from the DOM-Object (the video-tag) may be the more elegant way than declaring a boolean variable and setting it to false.
It would just be the line video.removeEventListener("timeupdate", myfunc) after the output to the console.
