Tests a value, `x`, against a predicate function. If `true`, return `fn(x)`. Else, return `x`.
|
|
|
|
Return a function expecting a single value, `x`, that returns the appropriate value based on `pred`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const when = (pred, whenTrue) => x => (pred(x) ? whenTrue(x) : x);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const doubleEvenNumbers = when(x => x % 2 === 0, x => x * 2);
|
|
doubleEvenNumbers(2); // 4
|
|
doubleEvenNumbers(1); // 1
|
|
