// Example function with regular and variadic parameters
function foo(a, b, ...rest) {
  // e.g., want the 2nd variadic argument
  return rest[1];
}

// Partial application: fix a = 1, b = _, ...rest = 2, 3, _
const part = partialWithPlaceholders(foo, 1, _, 2, 3, _);

// Now call with one more argument, fills the remaining placeholder:
console.log(part(99)); // Output: 3

// You can also use it to fix different arguments:
const part2 = partialWithPlaceholders(foo, _, 10, 20, 30, 40);
console.log(part2(7)); // Output: 30 (rest=[20,30,40], rest[1]=30)
