in reply to reduce like iterators

Since somebody revived this really old node, might as well mention there's a recent ticket to add a function to List::Util. Also found a ticket in the queue of List::MoreUtils, but the author claims the functionality already exists in List::Util ?!

    He's the maintainer, I think the authors abandoned it. And he most likely misunderstood the question.

    I already contacted him privately regarding the scalar behavior of slide, his answer was kind of indicating that he would pass on the maintainership if asked.
