Sample text

This function, partial1, takes a value and a function of two arguments, and returns a function of one argument as its result. The name comes from the fact that the function is being applied to some but not all of its required arguments. def partial1[A,B,C](a: A, f: (A,B) => C): B => C The partial1 function has three type parameters, A, B, and C. It then takes two arguments. The argument f is itself a function that takes two arguments of types A and B respectively and returns a value of type C. The value returned by partial1 will also be a function, of type B => C.

Again, the implementation of this function is fully determined by its type signature. EXERCISE 5: Implement the higher-order function that composes two ©Manning Publications Co.
