Apply \var{function} of two arguments cumulatively to the items of

\var{sequence}, from left to right, so as to reduce the sequence to
|

a single value. For example, \code{reduce(lambda x, y: x+y, [1, 2,

3, 4, 5])} calculates \code{((((1+2)+3)+4)+5)}. If the optional

\var{x}, is the accumulated value and the right argument, \var{y},

is the update value from the \var{sequence}. If the optional
|

\var{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 \var{initializer} is not given and
