Curry function example

var add = fjs.curry(function(a, b) {
    return a + b;
});

var add3 = add(3);

add(1, 2, 3); // => 6
add3(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); // => 18

Curry expression example

var add = fjs.curry("a, b => a + b");

var add3 = add(3);

add(1, 2, 3); // => 6
add3(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); // => 18

Curry ES6 example

const add = fjs.curry((a, b) => a + b);

const add3 = add(3);

add(1, 2, 3); // => 6
add3(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); // => 18

Real world example

var converter = fjs.curry(function(rate, symbol, input) {
    var output = input * rate;
    return symbol + output.toFixed(2);
});

var poundsToUSD = converter(1.52, "$");
var poundsToEUR = converter(1.27, "€");

poundsToUSD(100); // => "$152.00"
poundsToEUR(50); // => "€63.50"
