Robert Mennell 54ed736e28 Create checkProp.md
Adds a simple `checkProp` factory function for re-usable utility predicates.

The reason the predicate comes before the prop is to signify the predicate will be called with the prop, however I have no desire to make that a hard requirement. Order can easily be changed.

### checkProp
Given a `predicate` function and a `prop` string this curried function will then take an `object` to inspect by calling the property and passing it to the predicate.
It summons `prop` on `obj` and passes it to a provided `predicate` function and returns a masked boolean
```js
const checkProp = (predicate, prop) => obj => !!predicate(obj[prop])
```
```js
const lengthIs4 = checkProp(l => l === 4, 'length')
lengthIs4([]) // false
lengthIs4([1,2,3,4]) // true
lengthIs4(new Set([1,2,3,4]) // false (Set uses Size, not length)
const session = { user: {} }
const validUserSession = checkProps(u => u.active && !u.disabled, 'user')
validUserSession(session) // false
session.user.active = true
validUserSession(session) // true
const noLength(l => l === undefined, 'length')
noLength([]) // false
noLength({}) // true
noLength(new Set()) // true
```
