Functional Operators

When taking the functional approach in JavaScript, and especially when using libraries like Ramda that strongly encourage currying, having functional, curried versions of the langauge operators can be quite convenient.

For operators taking two arguments, and where it makes sense (i.e. not for + or -) there are "flipped" versions which take arguments in the opposite of the expected order. These are have the same names as the unflipped counterparts, preceded by "f" (fin() for the flipped version of the in operator). This library also includes some "impure" functions (f.delete for instance) that should be used very carefully in functional programming.

Two operators have been excluded because they don't make sense as functions in JavaScript, since arguments are evaluated at call time: void and ,.

Arithmetic Operators

• + (add)
• - (subtract)
• * (multiply)
• / (divide)
• % (mod)
• ++ (inc)
• -- (dec)
• ** (exp)

Bitwise Operators

• & (band)
• | (bor)
• ^ (bxor)
• ~ (bnot)
• << (bls)
• >> (bsprs)
• >>> (bzfrs)

Logical Operators

• && (and)
• fand
• || (or)
• ffor
• ! (not)

Unary Operators

• delete

var obj = {a: 1, b: 2};
f.delete(o)("a");
obj; // {b: 2}

• fdelete

var obj = {a: 1, b: 2};
f.delete("a")(o);
obj; // {b: 2}

• typeof

f.typeof("") // "string"

Relational Operators

• in

f.in("length")([]) // true

• fin

f.fin([])("length") // true

• instanceof

f.instanceof([])(Object) // true

• finstanceof

f.instanceof(Object)([]) // true
