Mastering JavaScript Closures with once Function

Day 9 of #30DaysOfJavaScript: Mastering Function Execution Control with Closures! 🔐 Today I solved an interesting problem that pushed me to create a function wrapper called once. This wrapper ensures the original function runs only one time, no matter how many times it’s called afterwards—any further calls simply return undefined. This challenge deepened my understanding of JavaScript closures and how they can be used to preserve state and control function execution flow. Here’s my implementation: javascript function once(fn) { let called = false; let res; return function(...args) { if (!called) { called = true; res = fn(...args); return res; } return undefined; }; } Why this matters: Enables safer function calls by preventing unintended multiple executions. Useful pattern in scenarios like event handling, API calls, or initialization. Showcases how closures can encapsulate state elegantly in JavaScript. Excited to keep building on these foundational concepts and to see what Day 10 has in store!
