I see why it doesn’t allow their example of “(() => 5)()” But what is preventing me from doing “((a) => 5)(0)” since the regex only requires at least one non s

I see why it doesn’t allow their example of “(() => 5)()” But what is preventing me from doing “((a) => 5)(0)” since the regex only requires at least one non space char between parens... Or any function call really?

`(a)` isn't allowed because letters aren't allowed, and you can't put a number in the argument location (e.g. `((1) => 2)(3)` doesn't parse as valid JS).

  A commenter above offered ((//)=>5)(//)

    HN formatting is messing this up. It should have two asterisks between each "//"

      indent 2+ spaces for code-like formatting :) *plenty of asterisks* /**/ Also simplifies ascii art since it's mono-spaced: |\__/,| (`\ _.|o o |_ ) ) ---(((---(((---------
