instance method Function#curry
Function#curry(args...) → Function
-
args
(?
) – The arguments to curry.
Curries (burns in) arguments to a function, returning a new function that when called with call the original passing in the curried arguments (along with any new ones):
function showArguments() { alert($A(arguments).join(', ')); } showArguments(1, 2,, 3); // -> alerts "1, 2, 3" var f = showArguments.curry(1, 2, 3); f('a', 'b'); // -> alerts "1, 2, 3, a, b"
Function#curry
works just like Function#bind
without the initial
context argument. Use bind
if you need to curry arguments and set
context at the same time.
The name "curry" comes from mathematics.
