Description
JavaScript functions go much beyond what you already know! You will learn about first-class objects, lambda functions, and higher-order functions in this course. Learn how to do the "mapping", "filtering", and "aggregation" operations, as well as how to pass and take an infinite number of arguments. Learn about external libraries that make programming much simpler.
