Element

Box metrics

elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

####Introduction:#### Managing state in an application is critical, and is often done haphazardly. Redux provides a state container for JavaScript applications that will help your applications behave consistently.

	// === Arrays

	var [a, b] = [1, 2];
	console.log(a, b);
	//=> 1 2


	// Use from functions, only select from pattern
	var foo = () => [1, 2, 3];
