They redefine the “processing a sequence” concept encompassing the usual “map”, “reduce”, and “filter” functions, and can be applied to both synchronous and asynchronous computations.In this talk we will see how to use them in Javascript (mostly through underarm), and especially how they can help you producing better code.
