Why is "map an array with a function" unintuitive but "filter an array with a function" isn't?
I think you mean map/filter.
Looks cool, but I can't help but think that you're just reproducing what map() and filter() do, without any real benefits?
An interesting idea, but don't the "map" and "flatMap" functions provide similar functionality?
Using reduce to perform a map is a fun way to annoy colleagues.
Why not? map, fold/reduce are not necessarily implemented as the textbook says.
You can just use 'map' explicitly. It doesn't have to be special syntax.
Not who you’re responding to but from context I would assume map/filter, as he said.
Come on, map and filter difficult? That's hyperbole of the highest order.
for me it's lack of map/reduce
