This problem is really confusing me. I found a solution online, but I
can't understand the solution. Can anyone explain to me why this
works?

The problem is stated as:



Write a function which allows you to create function compositions. The
parameter list should take a variable number of functions, and create
a function applies them from right-to-left.
(= [3 2 1] ((__ rest reverse) [1 2 3 4]))
(= 5 ((__ (partial + 3) second) [1 2 3 4]))


The examples would accept the solution replacing the ____.

The solution I found is:

(fn [x & xs]
  (fn [& args]
    ((fn step [[f & fs] a]
       (if fs
         (f (step fs a))
         (apply f a)))
     (cons x xs) args)))


This works, and baffles me when I try to understand it.
