In the below, where does b come from? I don't see it being passed in, so how could it be returned?
function lockInFirstArg( fn, a ) {
return function( b ) {
return fn( a, b );
};
}

More complete excerpt (sorry for iPad formatting... No tabs):
// More-general functions. function add( a, b ) { return a + b; } function multiply( a, b ) { return a * b; } // Relatively flexible more-specific function generator. function lockInFirstArg( fn, a ) { return function( b ) { return fn( a, b ); }; } var add1 = lockInFirstArg( add, 1 ); add1( 2 ); // 3 add1( 3 ); // 4 add1( 10 ); // 11
