Curry (mathematics)

Curry, in mathematics, refers to a technique called currying that transforms a function with multiple inputs into a sequence of functions, each with a single input. Instead of a function taking both x and y at once, currying creates a function that takes x and returns another function, which then takes y. This process simplifies complex functions, making it easier to work with modular components. Named after logician Haskell Curry, currying is fundamental in functional programming and mathematical logic, enhancing flexibility and composability in function design.
