console.log(isAsync(fs.readFile)) // => true
console.log(isCallback(function (foo, bar, cb) {})) // => false
console.log(isAsync(function (foo, bar, cb) {})) // => true
console.log(isCallback(function callback (foo, bar) {})) // => true
console.log(isAsync(function callback (foo, bar) {})) // => false
console.log(isCallback(function named (foo, cb) {})) // => false
console.log(isAsync(function named (foo, cb) {})) // => true
console.log(isCallback(function named (foo) {})) // => false
console.log(isAsync(function named (foo) {})) // => false
console.log(isCallback(function foo (bar) {}, ['baz', 'foo', 'qux'])) // => true
console.log(isAsync(function foo (bar, qux) {}, ['baz', 'qux', 'aaa'])) // => true
console.log(isAsync(function foo (bar, qux) {}, ['baz', 'aaa'])) // => false
