### Use table.map, table.filter, and table.reduce

Source: https://github.com/windower/lua/wiki/Writing-Addons

Usage examples for the map, filter, and reduce functions defined in the `functions` module. The first example splits a string, maps `ucfirst` over the parts, and concatenates with `sconcat`; the second filters a table using `math.even` and `math.odd`; the third reduces the filtered tables with `math.sum` and `math.mult`. The comments show the expected outputs.

```lua
str = 'your mog locker lease is valid until 2014/4/6 8:18:08, kupo.'
t = str:split(' ')
log(t:map(ucfirst):sconcat())
-- Outputs: 'Your Mog Locker Lease Is Valid Until 2014/4/6 8:18:08, Kupo.'

t = T{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}
even = t:filter(math.even)          -- Where math.even(x) == return x%2 == 0
odd = t:filter(math.odd)            -- Where math.odd(x) == return x%2 == 1
-- Outputs: even == {2,4,6,8}; odd == {1,3,5,7}

even_sum = even:reduce(math.sum)    -- Where math.sum(x,y) == x+y
odd_mult = odd:reduce(math.mult)    -- Where math.mult(x,y) == x*y
-- Outputs: even_sum == 20; odd_mult == 105
```
