     37 ## Usage
     38 
     39 ```javascript
     40 var someByRight = require( '@stdlib/utils/some-by-right' );
     41 ```
     42 
     43 #### someByRight( collection, n, predicate\[, thisArg ] )
     44 
     45 Tests whether a `collection` contains at least `n` elements which pass a test implemented by a `predicate` function, iterating from right to left.
     46 
     47 ```javascript
     48 function isNegative( value ) {
     49     return ( value < 0 );
     50 }
     51 
     52 var arr = [ -1, 1, -2, 3, 4 ];
     53 
     54 var bool = someByRight( arr, 2, isNegative );
     55 // returns true
     56 ```
     57 
     58 Once the function finds `n` successful elements, the function **immediately** returns `true`.
     59 
     60 ```javascript
     61 function isNegative( value ) {
     62     if ( value > 0 ) {
     63         throw new Error( 'should never reach this line' );
     64     }
     65     return ( value < 0 );
     66 }
     67 
     68 var arr = [ -1, 2, -3, -4 ];
     69 
     70 var bool = someByRight( arr, 2, isNegative );
     71 // returns true
     72 ```
     73 
     74 The invoked `function` is provided three arguments:
     75 
     76 -   `value`: collection element
     77 -   `index`: collection index
     78 -   `collection`: input collection
     79 
     80 To set the function execution context, provide a `thisArg`.
     81 
     82 ```javascript
     83 function sum( value ) {
     84     this.sum += value;
     85     this.count += 1;
     86     return ( value < 0 );
     87 }
     88 
     89 var arr = [ -5, 1, 2, 3, 4 ];
     90 
     91 var context = {
     92     'sum': 0,
     93     'count': 0
     94 };
     95 
     96 var bool = someByRight( arr, 1, sum, context );
     97 // returns true
     98 
     99 var mean = context.sum / context.count;
    100 // returns 1.0
    101 ```

    111 ## Notes
    112 
    113 -   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`).
    114 
    115 -   If provided an empty collection, the function returns `false`.
    116 
    117     ```javascript
    118     function alwaysTrue() {
    119         return true;
    120     }
    121     var bool = someByRight( [], 1, alwaysTrue );
    122     // returns false
    123     ```
    124 
    125 -   The function does **not** skip `undefined` elements.
    126 
    127     <!-- eslint-disable no-sparse-arrays, stdlib/doctest-marker -->
    128 
    129     ```javascript
    130     function log( value, index ) {
    131         console.log( '%s: %s', index, value );
    132         return ( value < 0 );
    133     }
    134 
    135     var arr = [ -1, 1, , , 4 ];
    136 
    137     var bool = someByRight( arr, 1, log );
    138     /* =>
    139         4: 4
    140         3: undefined
    141         2: undefined
    142         1: 1
    143         0: -1
    144     */
    145     ```
    146 
    147 -   The function provides limited support for dynamic collections (i.e., collections whose `length` changes during execution). Note, however, that index incrementation is **not** guaranteed to be monotonically **decreasing**.
