Note that currying is not necessary for partial application, here is partial application implemented in C++14: http://coliru.stacked-crooked.com/a/bed4a4fdd6e856b0 http://coliru.stacked-crooked.com/a/bed4a4fdd6e856b0 However, I find lambdas with the extra parameters repeated more readable than partial application.
