The `ThrottleHelper` class provides a way to limit the rate at which a function can be called by a user within a specified time period.

#### Example usage:

```
use App\Helpers\ThrottleHelper;

// Define your function
$myFunction = function() {
    // Your function logic goes here
};

// Throttle the function
$result = ThrottleHelper::throttle($myFunction, 15, 'myFunction', $userId);

// Check the result
if (is_callable($result)) {
    // Function was executed successfully
} else {
    // Function was throttled, handle accordingly
    echo $result; // Example: "Please try again in 10 seconds."
}
```
