		# Absurdum
		Absurdum is a Javascript utility library built with a focus on providing idempotent side-effect free functions and clear/readable modular source for tree shaking.

		> "if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail" - Maslow's Hammer
		## Features

		In this package, [Array.prototype.reduce][] is the hammer
		- Exploration of the flexibility of Reduce
		- Source of functions is viewable in one file
		- CommonJS and ES2015 module support
		- All functions are side-effect free
		- Polyfills for older environments
		- Executes on VanillaJS data structures
		- Small footprint (15K minified)

		## Why the Funky Name?

		It's a play on the latin phrase [Reductio ad absurdum][wikipedia]

		> In logic, reductio ad absurdum (Latin for "reduction to absurdity"; or argumentum ad absurdum, "argument to absurdity") is a form of argument which attempts either to disprove a statement by showing it inevitably leads to a ridiculous, absurd, or impractical conclusion, or to prove one by showing that if it were not true, the result would be absurd or impossible.

		It is often said that of the big trio `map`, `filter`, and `reduce`, the first two are redundant. In fact, it's trivial to implement both `map` and `filter` using `reduce`.

		This library exists to take that concept to an absurd extreme by using `reduce` to implement as many different types of functional transforms as possible.

		## What's the Point?

		- It's a challenge
		- It's good practice
		- It forces you to code/think in a functional manner
		- Who cares, it's fun

		...and just maybe, new patterns/practice will emerge from pushing `reduce` to its limits.
