Functional is a library for functional programming in JavaScript. It defines the standard higher-order functions such as map, reduce (aka foldl), and select (aka filter). It also defines functions such as curry, rcurry, and partial for partial function application; and compose, guard, and until for function-level programming. And all these functions accept strings, such as 'x -> x+1', 'x+1', or '+1' as synonyms for the more verbose function(x) {return x+1}.

Functional lets you write code such as this: ``` map('x+1', [1,2,3]) select('x>2', [1,2,3,4]) some('_.length < 3', 'are there any short words?'.split(' '))

// double the items in a list map('_/2', [1,2,3]) // find the odd numbers filter('%2', [1,2,3,4]) // or the evens filter(not('%2'), [1,2,3,4])

Array.prototype.sum = reduce.curry('+', 0).compose('this') [1,2,3].sum() ```
