JavaScript Higher Order Functions in 1 Minute #shorts

What is a Higher Order Function in JavaScript?
Why do we need Higher Order functions?
And how can you use them to your advantage?

Higher Order Functions from the series "10 Things JS Developers Should Know"

[Wildenfree]

So far you’re my favorite coding instructor, I really appreciate your content — both the shorts & the long form. 🙏🏾

[Javatician]

there is error in your code.
it should be return function(size) {} // you are mising size parameter

[KaraboMoremi]

I'm currently learning React. These videos are helping me reinforce the new knowledge 🤝🏽🤝🏽

There is no need for a higher function in this case. Just do a regular function which takes the px as Argument and sets it to the body properly.

Binging all your shorts before my web dev endsems.😅

[muhammedhuzaifa]

That thing you can also do without using HOF by using simple function that takes size and return that style

[pixbug]

Basicaly a HOF is like a way to sneak a property onto another function that has to do the job.

[holuhola]

one more thing to add... an higher order function can do both.... take and return

[bob_kazamakis]

Why are we giving new names to lambda functions and factory functions?

[fieryscorpion]

Shouldn’t ‘function makeClickHandler’ take the size parameter?
For eg:
function makeClickHandler(size)

[elatedbento]

I'm on my phone. I need to save this short to a playlist. I CAN'T 😭 pls help.

[chrisrock]

Why not just write a first order function for the click handler that takes the font size as an argument

[AdnanDeveloperConsole]

const hoc = (WrappedComponent) => (props) => {
return (
<div>
<WrappedComponent {...props}>

</WrappedComponent>
</div>
)
}

Simple example of higher order component

[DainSPb]

Didn't get it(
What's the point of using function inside a function in that case?

[muhammedhuzaifa]

I understand it u handleClick but still this example don't fit here

[RaresMarianRosca-jxyn]

const buttons =

buttons.forEach(button => {
button.onclick = () => {
button.style.fontSize = `${button.innerText}px`;
};
});


// better or worse??
// simpler or more complicated??

[Dmytro-ktfr]

better learn what hof actually is then making it lang specific
