curious how often reduce is used with something else than operator.add?
1 comments

One occurence was to calculate the GCD of a list of polynomials.

In fact I had "reduce" appearing in the names of some of my variables so I used it less than 32 times, about 20 times in that project.

I see nothing particularly inspiring in the examples posted on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15995/useful-code-which-u...

Could you show your reduce calls?

They are very similar to this one from your link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15995/useful-code-which-u...
