| 20 |

## API
|
| 34 |
|
|
|
| 35 |
|
|
### pTry(fn, ...arguments)
|
| 36 |
|
|
|
| 37 |
|
|
Returns a `Promise` resolved with the value of calling `fn(...arguments)`. If the function throws an error, the returned `Promise` will be rejected with that error.
|
| 38 |
|
|
|
| 39 |
|
|
Support for passing arguments on to the `fn` is provided in order to be able to avoid creating unnecessary closures. You probably don't need this optimization unless you're pushing a *lot* of functions.
|
| 40 |
|
|
|
| 41 |
|
|
#### fn
|
| 42 |
|
|
|
| 43 |
|
|
The function to run to start the promise chain.
|
| 44 |
|
|
|
| 45 |
|
|
#### arguments
|
| 46 |
|
|
|
| 47 |
|
|
Arguments to pass to `fn`.
