reduce () in python

#The reduce() function accepts a function and a sequence and
#returns a single value calculated as follows:

#1) Initially, the function is called with the first two items from the sequence 
#and the result is returned.
#2) The function is then called again with the result obtained in step 1 
#and the next value in the sequence. This process keeps repeating 
#until there are items in the sequence.
