Higher-order functions in different languages. Inspired by: FizzBuzz and hello-world.
Higher-order functions (HOF) are functions that satisfy one or both rules:
- Returns a function.
- Take one or more function parameters.
The two example higher-order functions are:
add takes an integer as a parameter and returns a second function that takes an integer, which returns the overall result.
function(int) -> function(int) -> int
each is a void function takes a list as its first parameter and a function as its second parameter. It then iterates over the given list passing in each element into the function.
function([int], function(int) -> void) -> void
Show how the function is used by calling them in the program's entry point. For example:
const three = add(1)(2);
each([1, 2, 3], console.log);
