FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Useful Array One-liners.

const removeDuplicates2 = array => Array.from(new Set(array));
// Flattens an array(doesn't flatten deeply).

Modern JavaScript in React Documentation

If you haven’t worked with JavaScript in the last few years, these three points should give you enough knowledge to feel comfortable reading the React documentation:

  • We define variables with let and const statements. For the purposes of the React documentation, you can consider them equivalent to var.
  • We use the class keyword to define JavaScript classes. There are two things worth remembering about them. Firstly, unlike with objects, you don't need to put commas between class method definitions. Secondly, unlike many other languages with classes, in JavaScript the value of this in a method [depends on how it is called](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Jav

Defines recursive function that keeps its stack on the heap (productized version)
import kotlin.coroutines.*
import kotlin.coroutines.intrinsics.*
/**
* Defines deep recursive function that keeps its stack on the heap,
* which allows very deep recursive computations that do not use the actual call stack.
* To initiate a call to this deep recursive function use its [invoke] function.
* As a rule of thumb, it should be used if recursion goes deeper than a thousand calls.
*
* The [DeepRecursiveFunction] takes one parameter of type [T] and returns a result of type [R].
