I want to do one last thing. The shopping cart controller is mighty handy. No doubt we want to reuse this functionality in Node.js to create invoices.

module.exports = (function () { var Order = function () { this.lines = []; }; Order.prototype.removeLine = function (line) { this.lines.splice(this.lines.indexOf(line), 1); }; [...] return { Order: Order, Line: Line };})();
