    //! @ingroup group-functional
    //! Partially apply a function to some arguments.
    //!
    //! Given a function `f` and some arguments, `partial` returns a new
    //! function corresponding to the partially applied function `f`. This
    //! allows providing some arguments to a function and letting the rest
    //! of the arguments be provided later. Specifically, `partial(f, x...)`
    //! is a function such that
    //! @code
    //!     partial(f, x...)(y...) == f(x..., y...)
    //! @endcode
    //!
    //! @note
    //! The arity of `f` must match the total number of arguments passed to
    //! it, i.e. `sizeof...(x) + sizeof...(y)`.
    //!
    //!
    //! Example
    //! -------
    //! @include example/functional/partial.cpp
