This document discusses higher-order functions and currying. It begins by defining higher-order functions as functions that either take other functions as parameters or return functions. It then provides examples of different types of higher-order functions in JavaScript. The bulk of the document focuses on currying, explaining that currying converts a function that takes multiple arguments into a chain of functions that each take a single argument. It provides examples of currying functions in JavaScript using both the new Function() method and closures. Finally, it illustrates how currying can simplify code by pre-binding arguments.
