JavaScript: Takes a function as an argument, then makes the first argument the last
JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-232 with Solution
Write a JavaScript program that takes a function as an argument, then makes the first argument the last.
- Use argument destructuring and a closure with variadic arguments.
- Splice the first argument, using the spread operator (...), to make it the last before applying the rest.
Sample Solution:
JavaScript Code:
//#Source https://bit.ly/2neWfJ2
const flip = fn => (first, ...rest) => fn(...rest, first);
let a = { name: 'John Smith' };
let b = {};
const mergeFrom = flip(Object.assign);
let mergePerson = mergeFrom.bind(null, a);
mergePerson(b); // == b
b = {};
console.log(Object.assign(b, a)); // == b
Sample Output:
{"name":"John Smith"}
