// get rid of local variable scopes
Thing.run(1, 2, 3)(function (a, b, c) {
    return Thing.run(a + b)(function (d) {
        return c + d;
    });
}); // 6

// matching regular expressions
Thing.matchRegExpMulti(/(p)/g, "apple", function (x, y, z, t) {
    // each logged twice
    console.log(x);
    console.log(y);
    console.log(z);
    console.log(t);
    return 1;
}); // returns [1, 1]
