<h2 id="summary">Summary</h2>
<p>Lodash is a JavaScript library that helps programmers write more concise and maintainable JavaScript.
</p><p>It can be broken down into several main areas:
</p>
<ul><li>Utilities: for simplifying common programming tasks such as determining type as well as simplifying math operations.</li>
<li>Function: simplifying binding, decorating, constraining, throttling, debouncing, <a href="/facts/Currying/AmD3PP5B">currying</a>, and changing the pointer.</li>
<li>String: conversion functions for performing basic string operations, such as trimming, converting to uppercase, <a href="/facts/Camel_case/NtrmzwqN">camel case</a>, etc.</li>
<li>Array: creating, splitting, combining, modifying, and compressing</li>
<li>Collection: iterating, sorting, filtering, splitting, and  building</li>
<li>Object: accessing, extending, merging, defaults, and transforming</li>
<li>Seq: chaining, wrapping, filtering, and testing.</li></ul>
<p>It has had multiple releases, so not all functions are available in all implementations.  For example, _.chunk has only been available since version 3.0.0.
