Also a great idea. I added a new helper so that folks can do either. Thanks again, this makes things cleaner!

const { curry } = require('conditional-reduce');

const dogReducer = curry({
  dog: () => 'Dogs are great pets',
  cat: () => 'Cat\'s are also great'
});

console.log(dogReducer('dog')); // Prints "Dogs are great pets"
console.log(dogReducer('bird')); // Throws 'Invalid conditional value "bird"' exception

const { reduce } = require('conditional-reduce');

console.log(reduce('dog', {
  dog: () => 'Dogs are great pets',
  cat: () => 'Cat\'s are also great'
})); // Prints "Dogs are great pets"

console.log(reduce('bird', {
  dog: () => 'Dogs are great pets',
  cat: () => 'Cat\'s are also great'
})); // Throws 'Invalid conditional value "bird"' exception
