## @deftypefn {Function File} {@var{x} =} reduce (@var{function}, @var{sequence},@var{initializer})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {@var{x} =} reduce (@var{function}, @var{sequence})
## Implements the 'reduce' operator like in Lisp, or Python.
## Apply function of two arguments cumulatively to the items of sequence, 
## from left to right, so as to reduce the sequence to a single value. For example,
## reduce(@@(x,y)(x+y), [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) calculates ((((1+2)+3)+4)+5).
## The left argument, x, is the accumulated value and the right argument, y, is the 
## update value from the sequence. If the optional initializer is present, it is 
## placed before the items of the sequence in the calculation, and serves as
## a default when the sequence is empty. If initializer is not given and sequence
## contains only one item, the first item is returned.
##
## @example
##  reduce(@@add,[1:10])
##  @result{} 55
##      reduce(@@(x,y)(x*y),[1:7]) 
##  @result{} 5040  (actually, 7!)
## @end example
## @end deftypefn
