And here's an argument for why you want your non-varying arguments to come first in your function signature.

Many languages have the concept of "partial application", where supplying a function with fewer arguments than it expects doesn't raise an error, but instead returns a function that is waiting for the remaining arguments.

For example, imagine if you had a function add(x,y) and add(1) didn't throw an error, but returned a function that was waiting for y and returned 1 + y when you supplied it with that single argument, e.g.,

def add(x, y):
    return x + y

Python's `hash()`

Authors's Note

This is an outline of how I'd explain hash to a novice programmer. I've given versions of this explanation hundreds of times to thousands of students, beginners and experts alike.

Students tell me they find it compelling because it helps them connect w/ what's really going on by emphasizing both the technical and human/design elements.

I'm assuming the student is comfortable with:

See code below in file: add-k-from-end-recursive.js

Scavenger Hunt

Every item below refers to a specific function built into the JavaScript language. For each item, find:

The relevant page and section on MDN's official JavaScript documentation
At least one online resource (tutorial, etc.) other than Stack Overflow, w3cshools, or geekforgeeks explaining the function

Scavenger Items

Given two numbers, tell me how to get the remainder after dividing the former by the latter.
