2.7.13 List Combinators

There is extensive support for operations on lists in the virtual code format. Use of these features is encouraged because they are conducive to tight code with explicit concurrency. Within an imperative programming paradigm, these features might perhaps have to be understood as design patterns or algorithmic skeletons. The present exposition takes a functional view, describing them in terms of operators that take functions as their arguments and return functions as their result.
