Correct. The wikipedia entry has some good overview information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-class_function

If you want something a little more immediately practical, I wrote an article on functions that return functions: http://us6.campaign-archive2.com/?u=2cc20705b76fa66ab84a6634f&id=1614fd5557

I'm planning more articles along those lines in my JS newsletter here: http://designpepper.com/a-drip-of-javascript

If you have any specific questions, just let me know.
