= Sequentially

Sequentially is a library of temporal and frequency adverbs for
JavaScript.  It provides methods to queue a function for deferred or
periodic execution, and to throttle the rate or number of times that a
function can be called.  You could think of it as a kind of
memoization, where instead of caching the result it modifies *when*
and *whether* a function is called.

The {demo page}[http://osteele.com/sources/javascript/sequentially]
contains API documentation and interactive examples for most of the
functions.  I've added a couple of functions more recently that aren't
on that page, but are in the specs[http://osteele.com/sources/javascript/sequentially/specs] instead:

  Sequentially.trickle.forEach(array, fn, ms, k)

Call +fn+ on each element of +array+, and finally call +k+.  The
function is applied to a slice of elements until +ms+ has elapsed; the
caller then waits a frame before applying it to the next slice.


  Sequentially.trickle.map(array, fn, ms, k)

Call +fn+ on each element of +array+, collecting the results into an
array that is returned and passed as an argument to +k+.  The function
is applied to a slice of elements until +ms+ has elapsed; the caller
then waits a frame before applying it to the next slice.  The return
value is initially empty.
