From
"Removed discussion of variable function arguments and the special syntax for curried functions."
Why?
I tried variable function arguments and they seem to work fine in Xcode 9. Didn't try currying yet, however.
Are these features being phased out?
The currying syntax was removed in Swift 3 (see
https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0002-remove-currying.md\).
I'm not aware, though, of any proposal in the pipeline to remove variadic
arguments, so it's not clear why the book should have removed discussion
about them.

Yes, this is a real mystery.

Hi – just to clear this up:
A short description of variable argument functions (variadic functions) was removed specifically from the “A Swift Tour” part of TSPL. It was felt that this particular feature wasn’t the kind of thing that needed to be included up front in such a short intro-to-the-language chapter. They’re still described in the Functions chapter.

That is, "variable" not "variadic" function arguments.
func foo(var a: Int) { ... }
is no longer valid, the parameter may not have the var specifier anymore.
