restArguments.js

// Some functions take a variable number of arguments, or a few expected
// arguments at the beginning and then a variable number of values to operate
// on. This helper accumulates all remaining arguments past the function’s
// argument length (or an explicit `startIndex`), into an array that becomes
// the last argument. Similar to ES6’s "rest parameter".
