; This function decorator returns an auto currying version of the function passed to it

; a helper function that looks at a functions metadata to get the number of arguments required
(defn arities
  [v]
  (-> v meta :arglists first count))

; curry takes a function quote (ex. #'map) and any initial arguments you may want to pass to it (or none) and if all the arguments aren't
; fulfilled it returns a curry. You can continue to call each curry and it will return another one until all args are fulfilled

// Second version of partializer that takes a simplified and more flexible implementation of making a function curryable.

// The original function created a new function from a string that made every argument a curry. That version forced a curry for every argument
// This function allows you to pass in any number of arguments at a time and as soon as all the arguments have been passed it will call the function
// and return the result.

// Rather than attempting to explicitly nest functions, this implementation is only concerned with whether all the arguments have been met or not
// If not, then it returns a function with the arguments currenty supplied stored for later use.
// You can include or exclude as many arguments as you want untill all of them have been fulfilled.
