That one does not work, it'll try to call the binary `add` with each
item of the array when the map iterator is reified, erroring out.

     functools.reduce(operator.add, array, '')

would work though, it's an other way to spell `sum` without the
string prohibition.

Oops, you are right of course, I was thinking reduce but it came out map.
Thanks for the correction.
