Really great contribution. This is going to be so useful.
I agree that it might be better to mimic the syntax from an existing
language. Personally, I think any of the 3 options defined would work well,
but based on our roots in Java and the ubiquity of Java, I'd stick with Java's
approach.

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Casey Stella
>
> To enable use-cases where the user may want to do simple iteration, we can
> expose simple functional primitives such as:
> * MAP
> * REDUCE
> * FILTER
> To fully support this, we will need lambda expressions as arguments to these
> functions.
