partial

A function to be partially applied. Can be any function (normal,
already partially applied, primitives).

A list of values that should be applied to the function.

args


The <code>partial</code> function and the <code>%><%< code=""> operator allows you to
partially call a function with a list of arguments. Named elements in the
list will be matched to function arguments and these arguments will be
removed from the returned function. Unnamed elements are only allowed for
functions containing an ellipsis, in which case they are considered part of
the ellipsis.
</%<></code>

Partial application is the process of reducing the arity of a
function by fixing one or more arguments, thus creating a new function
lacking the fixed arguments. The curry package provides three different ways
of performing partial function application by fixing arguments from either
end of the argument list (currying and tail currying) or by fixing multiple
named arguments (partial application). This package provides this
functionality through the %<%, %-<%, and %><% operators which allows for
a programming style comparable to modern functional languages. Compared
to other implementations such a purrr::partial() the operators in curry
composes functions with named arguments, aiding in autocomplete etc.
