Accepts a converging function and a list of branching functions and returns a function that applies each branching function to the arguments and the results of the branching functions are passed as arguments to the converging function.
|
|
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.map()` and `Function.prototype.apply()` to apply each function to the given arguments.
|
|
- Use the spread operator (`...`) to call `converger` with the results of all other functions.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const converge = (converger, fns) => (...args) =>
|
|
converger(...fns.map(fn => fn.apply(null, args)));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const average = converge((a, b) => a / b, [
|
|
arr => arr.reduce((a, v) => a + v, 0),
|
|
arr => arr.length
|
|
]);
|
|
average([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]); // 4
|
|
```
