```javascript
const label = TimeZone.getLabelFromValue('America/New_York');
console.log(label);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
"(UTC-05:00) America/New_York"
```

Parameters:
- `value: TimeZoneNames`: The time zone value.

### getValueFromLabel
Gets the value for a given time zone label.

```javascript
const value = TimeZone.getValueFromLabel('(UTC-05:00) America/New_York');
console.log(value);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
"America/New_York"
```

Parameters:
- `label: string`: The time zone label.

### getRegions
Returns a list of all available regions.

```javascript
const regions = TimeZone.getRegions();
console.log(regions);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
[
"Africa",
"America",
"Asia",
"Atlantic",
"Australia",
"Europe",
"Indian",
"Pacific"
]
```

### convertUTCToTimeZone
Converts a UTC date to a specified time zone.

```javascript
const converted = TimeZone.convertUTCToTimeZone('2023-10-10T10:00:00', 'America/New_York', { is24Hour: true });
console.log(converted);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
"2023-10-10 06:00:00"
```

Parameters:
- `utcDate: Date | string`: The UTC date.
- `targetTimeZone: TimeZoneNames`: The target time zone.
- `options: ConvertOptions (optional)`: Object containing optional formatting options:
- `is24Hour: boolean`: Whether to use 24-hour format (default `true`).
- `dateSeparator: string`: The date separator (default `-`).
- `timeSeparator: string`: The time separator (default `:`).

### convertToUTC
Converts a date-time from a specified time zone to UTC.

```javascript
const converted = TimeZone.convertToUTC('2023-10-10T10:00:00', 'America/New_York', { is24Hour: false });
console.log(converted);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
"2023-10-10T14:00:00.000Z"
```

Parameters:
- `dateTime: Date | string`: The date-time to convert.
- `sourceTimeZone: TimeZoneNames`: The source time zone.
- `options: ConvertOptions (optional)`: Object containing optional formatting options:
- `is24Hour: boolean`: Whether to use 24-hour format (default `true`).

- `timeSeparator: string`: The time separator (default `:`).

### convertBetweenTimeZones
Convert a datetime from one timezone to another and format it in either 12-hour or 24-hour format. You can also specify a custom date separator. By default, the function uses a 24-hour format (`is24Hour = true`) and the date separator is `-`.

```javascript
const originalDate = "2024-10-15T14:00:00Z";
const convertedTime = TimeZone.convertBetweenTimeZones(originalDate, 'America/New_York', 'Asia/Dhaka', {is24Hour: false, dateSeparator: '-', timeSeparator: ':'});
console.log(convertedTime);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
"10/15/2024, 12:00:00"
```

Parameters:
- `date: string`: The date-time string to convert.
- `fromTimeZone: TimeZoneNames`: The source timezone.
- `toTimeZone: TimeZoneNames`: The target timezone.
- `options: ConvertOptions (optional)`: Object containing optional formatting options:
- `is24Hour: boolean`: Whether to use 24-hour format (default `true`).
- `dateSeparator: string`: The date separator (default `-`).
- `timeSeparator: string`: The time separator (default `:`).

### getCurrentTimeInTimeZone
Returns the current date and time in the specified timezone. The method allows formatting options such as 24-hour or 12-hour format and custom date and time separators.

```javascript
const currentTimeInNY = TimeZone.getCurrentTimeInTimeZone('America/New_York', { is24Hour: false, dateSeparator: '-', timeSeparator: ':' });
console.log(currentTimeInNY);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
"10-15-2024 08:34:56 AM"
```

Parameters:
- `targetTimeZone: TimeZoneNames`: The target timezone in which you want the current time.
- `options: ConvertOptions (optional)`: Object containing optional formatting options:
- `is24Hour: boolean`: Whether to use 24-hour format (default `true`).
- `dateSeparator: string`: The date separator (default `-`).
- `timeSeparator: string`: The time separator (default `:`).

### getTimeDifferenceBetweenTimeZones
Calculates the time difference between two time zones for a specific date.

```javascript
const difference = TimeZone.getTimeDifferenceBetweenTimeZones('2023-10-10T10:00:00', 'UTC', 'America/New_York');
console.log(difference);
```

Output Example:

```javascript
"+4 hours 0 minutes"
```

Parameters:
- `date: string`: The date string to use for calculation.
- `fromTimeZone: TimeZoneNames`: The source time zone.
- `toTimeZone: TimeZoneNames`: The target time zone.

### convertToISO
Converts a formatted date-time string to ISO format.

```javascript
const isoString = TimeZone.convertToISO("10th October 2023, 10:00 AM");
console.log(isoString);
