Hi! I created some animations to explain what happens internally with map & reduce functions.
The code is open source. Any feedback is welcome !

I like the animation you’ve made @pel_daniel.

Looking back at the beginner time, when started studying about functional programming and map/folds (reduce) in the paper “Why Functional Programming Matters”. I find this animation is much more simpler to grasp and concise for the map and fold topics.

Thanks @blisscs, I should read “Why Functional Programming Matters” again.
And maybe do an Animated/Illustrated version of it :thinking:
