// Call these functions one by one
oneByOne([

            cb(null, "Hello World");
        }, 1000);
    }
  , (cb, data) => {
        console.log(data);

        setTimeout(function () {
            cb(new Error("Some error"));
        }, 100);
    }
  , cb => {
        // This will NOT be triggered because the
        // previous sent an error
        cb(null, null);
    }
], (err, data) => {
    console.log(err, data);
    // => [Error: Some error] [ 'Hello World' ]
});

// Call these functions one by one
oneByOne([
    function (cb) {

            cb(null, "Hello World");
        }, 1000);

        }, 1000);
    }
