verbifunktio

Verdifunktio is a term originating from functional programming that describes a function that has been partially applied. Partial application is a technique where a function that takes multiple arguments is called with fewer arguments than it expects. The result of this partial application is a new function that "remembers" the arguments that were supplied and is now waiting for the remaining arguments.

For example, consider a function `add` that takes two numbers and returns their sum. If we partially apply `add` with the number 5, we create a new function that, when called with another number, will add 5 to that number. This new function is the verdifunktio.

The concept of verdifunktio is closely related to currying, which is the process of converting a function that takes multiple arguments into a sequence of functions, each taking a single argument. While currying transforms a multi-argument function into a chain of single-argument functions, partial application can be seen as applying some of these arguments from the curried sequence, resulting in a new function with a reduced arity.

Verdifunktio allows for the creation of specialized functions from more general ones, leading to more expressive and reusable code. It is a powerful tool in functional programming for building complex behaviors from simpler components without needing to redefine functions repeatedly.
