Potentially incorrect word #574

Hi Marijn,

Thank you so much for the 4th edition of the book!

I feel like Applications should be replaced by Functions at this line, resulting in the following.

Functions are written the way they are in JavaScript, by putting parentheses after an expression and having any number of arguments between those parentheses, separated by commas.

Or maybe I misunderstood the text. Thanks again!

No, 'Applications' is the intended word here—that's how function applications are written, which are a different thing from functions themselves.
