Dojo also has a map and a reduce (which I wrote quite a while ago…) and they’re native in FF 3.

“compare” is what I meant, no way to edit comments

Whatever, even the example at http://w3future.com/html/beyondJS/ doesn’t work on firefox… and give me a break, as if:
document.body.onmousemove = Function.from(“star”, “moveTo”).delay(1000).using(
“+”.using(
Function.from(event, ÃƒÂ—),
“*”.using(“radius”, Function.from(Math, “sin”, “angle”))),
“+”.using(
Function.from(event, “y”),
“*”.using(“radius”, Function.from(Math, “cos”, “angle”)))
).curry({
radius: 30,
angle: function() {return (new Date)/50;}.asValue()
}).gate(Function.from(“doStar”.element(),”checked”));

IS more readable than:
#
map(‘x*x’, [1,2,3,4])
#
// â†’ [1, 4, 9, 16]

Of course no disrespect to Steele, cause they don’t even compate
