Higher-Order Functions

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.

Spec

The two example higher-order functions are:

add

add takes an integer as a parameter and returns a second function that takes an integer, which returns the overall result.

type signature
function(int) -> function(int) -> int

each

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.

type signature
function([int], function(int) -> void) -> void

Example Usage

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);

hof's Issues

Add other languages

In the language of your choice, write an example of:

add(1)(2) // A function that returns a function value.
each([1, 2, 3], print) // A function that takes a function parameter.

Add [language name].[language extension] source file to the root.

For example:

// javascript.js

function add(x) {
  return function(y) { return x + y }
}

function each(list, callback) {
  for (var i = 0; i < list.length; i++) { callback(list[i]) }
}

// Example usage
add(1)(2)
each([1, 2, 3], console.log)

Please limit each pull request to one language, thank you.
Though multiple pull requests are welcome :)
