 ## Usage
 
 ```javascript
 var forEachRightAsync = require( '@stdlib/utils/async/for-each-right' );
 ```
 
 #### forEachRightAsync( collection, \[options,] fcn, done )
 
 Invokes a function once for each element in a `collection`, iterating from right to left.
 
 ```javascript
 function onDuration( value, next ) {
     setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
     function onTimeout() {
         console.log( value );
         next();
     }
 }
 
 function done( error ) {
     if ( error ) {
         throw error;
     }
 }
 
 var arr = [ 1000, 2500, 3000 ];
 
 forEachRightAsync( arr, onDuration, done );
 /* =>
     1000
     2500
     3000
 */
 ```
 
 The function accepts the following `options`:
 
 -   `limit`: the maximum number of pending invocations at any one time. Default: `infinity`.
 -   `series`: `boolean` indicating whether to sequentially invoke `fcn` for each `collection` element. If `true`, the function sets `options.limit=1`. Default: `false`.
 -   `thisArg`: the execution context for `fcn`.
 
 By default, all elements are processed concurrently, which means that the function does **not** guarantee completion order. To process each `collection` element sequentially, set the `series` option to `true`.
 
 ```javascript
 function onDuration( value, next ) {
     setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
     function onTimeout() {
         console.log( value );
         next();
     }
 }
 
 function done( error ) {
     if ( error ) {
         throw error;
     }
 }
 
 var arr = [ 1000, 2500, 3000 ];
 
 var opts = {
     'series': true
 };
 
 forEachRightAsync( arr, opts, onDuration, done );
 /* =>
     3000
     2500
     1000
 */
 ```
 
 To limit the maximum number of pending function invocations, set the `limit` option.
 
 ```javascript
 function onDuration( value, next ) {
     setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
     function onTimeout() {
         console.log( value );
         next();
     }
 }
 
 function done( error ) {
     if ( error ) {
         throw error;
     }
 }
 
 var arr = [ 1000, 2500, 3000 ];
 
 var opts = {
     'limit': 2
 };
 
 forEachRightAsync( arr, opts, onDuration, done );
 /* =>
     2500
     3000
     1000
 */
 ```
 
 To set the execution context of `fcn`, set the `thisArg` option.
 
 ```javascript
 function onDuration( value, next ) {
     this.count += 1;
     setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
     function onTimeout() {
         next();
     }
 }
 
 var arr = [ 1000, 2500, 3000 ];
 
 var context = {
     'count': 0
 };
 
 var opts = {
     'thisArg': context
 };
 
 forEachRightAsync( arr, opts, onDuration, done );
 
 function done( error ) {
     if ( error ) {
         throw error;
     }
     console.log( context.count );
     // => 3
 }
 ```
 
 When invoked, `fcn` is provided a maximum of four arguments:
 
 -   `value`: collection value.
 -   `index`: collection index.
 -   `collection`: the input `collection`.
 -   `next`: a callback which should be called once `fcn` has finished processing a collection `value`.
 
 The actual number of provided arguments depends on function `length`. If `fcn` accepts two arguments, `fcn` is provided `value` and `next`. If `fcn` accepts three arguments, `fcn` is provided `value`, `index`, and `next`. For every other `fcn` signature, `fcn` is provided all four arguments.
 
 ```javascript
 function onDuration( value, i, collection, next ) {
     console.log( 'collection: %s. %d: %d', collection.join( ',' ), i, value );
     setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
     function onTimeout() {
         console.log( value );
         next();
     }
 }
 
 function done( error ) {
     if ( error ) {
         throw error;
     }
 }
 
 var arr = [ 1000, 2500, 3000 ];
 
 forEachRightAsync( arr, onDuration, done );
 /* =>
     collection: 3000,2500,1000. 2: 3000
     collection: 3000,2500,1000. 1: 2500
     collection: 3000,2500,1000. 0: 1000
     1000
     2500
     3000
 */
 ```
 
 #### forEachRightAsync.factory( \[options,] fcn )
 
 Returns a `function` which invokes a function once for each element in a `collection`, iterating from right to left.
 
 ```javascript
 function onDuration( value, next ) {
     setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
     function onTimeout() {
         console.log( value );
         next();
     }
 }
 
 function done( error ) {
     if ( error ) {
         throw error;
     }
 }
 
 var f = forEachRightAsync.factory( onDuration );
 
 var arr1 = [ 1000, 2500, 3000 ];
 
 f( arr1, done );
 /* =>
     1000
     2500
     3000
 */
 
 var arr2 = [ 100, 250, 300 ];
 
 f( arr2, done );
 /* =>
     100
     250
     300
 */
 ```
 
 The function accepts the same `options` as `forEachRightAsync()`.

 ## Notes
 
 -   A `collection` may be either an [`Array`][mdn-array], [`Typed Array`][mdn-typed-array], or an array-like [`Object`][mdn-object] (excluding `strings` and `functions`).
 -   If a provided function calls the `next` callback with a truthy `error` argument, the function suspends execution and immediately calls the `done` callback for subsequent `error` handling.
 -   The function does **not** support dynamic `collection` resizing.
 -   The function does **not** skip `undefined` elements.
 -   **Neither** `forEachRightAsync` nor the function returned by the `factory` method **guarantee** asynchronous execution. To guarantee asynchrony, wrap the `done` callback in a function which either executes at the end of the current stack (e.g., `nextTick`) or during a subsequent turn of the event loop (e.g., `setImmediate`, `setTimeout`).
