If you came all the way from part 1, you should get the book: Functional JavaScript In the last post, we learned about Closures and Scopes. Today, we are addressing Higher Order Functions – Let’s do this! Higher Order Function A first-class function takes a function as an argument returns a function as a result […]
Remember the Book: Functional JavaScript So chapter 3 right?…hm Scopes From my understanding, where a variable lives, while the extent of a scope means how long a variable holds a value.

I hope to prevent redundancy in my […]

Scope the life-time of a variable; Global scope – variables declared without a (var) are in the global scope. Their life time is the longest. They are also easy to mutate at any time, thus you should take extra care when declaring variables in the global scope. Lexical scope – defines the visibility of the […]
