npm module project
Description
Create a library of commonly used Lodash methods with documentation and commenting using ES6, publish the code as a package to NPM.
Context
This goal is important in learning JavaScript and understanding how high level developers write code for others to use and to understand ES2015. This code will be used by other developers to make their jobs easier. The questions that this project will raise is how do we write packages that are easy to understand out of the box and simple to use right away. How to publish a package to NPM?

Arguments
pairs (Array): The key-value pairs.
Returns
(Object): Returns the new object.###inRange(number, start=0, end) Checks if n is between start and up to, but not including, end. If end is not specified, it's set to start with start then set to 0. If start is greater than end the params are swapped to support negative ranges.
Arguments
number (number): The number to check.
[start=0] (number): The start of the range.
end (number): The end of the range.
Returns
(boolean): Returns true if number is in the range, else false.###indexOf(array, value, fromIndex=0) Gets the index at which the first occurrence of value is found in array using SameValueZero for equality comparisons. If fromIndex is negative, it's used as the offset from the end of array.
Arguments
array (Array): The array to inspect.
value (*): The value to search for.
[fromIndex=0] (number): The index to search from.
Returns
(number): Returns the index of the matched value, else -1.###join(array, separator=',') Converts all elements in array into a string separated by separator.
Arguments
array (Array): The array to convert.
[separator=','] (string): The element separator.
Returns
(string): Returns the joined string.###last(array) Gets the last element of array.
Arguments
array (Array): The array to query.
Returns
(*): Returns the last element of array.###map(collection, itaratee=_.identity) Creates an array of values by running each element in collection thru iteratee. The iteratee is invoked with three arguments: (value, index|key, collection).
Arguments
collection (Array|Object): The collection to iterate over.
[iteratee=_.identity] (Function): The function invoked per iteration.
Returns
(Array): Returns the new mapped array.###mean(array) Computes the mean of the values in array.
Arguments
array (Array): The array to iterate over.
Returns
(number): Returns the mean.###nth(array, n=0) Gets the element at index n of array. If n is negative, the nth element from the end is returned.
Arguments
array (Array): The array to query.
[n=0] (number): The index of the element to return.
Returns
(*): Returns the nth element of array.###omit(object, ...props) This method creates an object composed of the own and inherited enumerable string keyed properties of object that are not omitted.
Arguments
object (Object): The source object.
[props] (...(string|string[])): The property identifiers to omit.
Returns
(Object): Returns the new object.###reduce(collection, itaratee=_.identity, accumulator) Reduces collection to a value which is the accumulated result of running each element in collection thru iteratee, where each successive invocation is supplied the return value of the previous. If accumulator is not given, the first element of collection is used as the initial value. The iteratee is invoked with four arguments: (accumulator, value, index|key, collection).

Arguments
array (Array): The array to modify.

Returns
(Array): Returns the slice of array.###truncate(string='', options={}, options.length=30, options.omission='...', options, separator) Truncates string if it's longer than the given maximum string length.
