Writing style

[Daniel D. Zhang]

In Higher-Order Function,

const filter = (pred, xs) => ...

For this one, is it better to explicitly use predicate rather than pred? Because the former one is more explicit, and for documentation we tend to favor explicit.

I think it's like arr and array. It's so obvious that people just get that
without much thinking.

I'm okay with using the full word if it helps people. Non fp people often
don't know what a predicate is anyway.

It really depends on the targeting audience of the this document. Unless it were for advanced readers, pred and other short forms would not benefit much.

It's not for advanced people. It's for beginners
