But not in python, where "accumulate"[1] is the generic equivalent of
C++ "partial_sum"[2]. I like "fold" more.

BTW this week, a colleague of mine implemented a python "accumulate" in D. Is there any interest to contribute it to Phobos? How should this be
named?

[1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.accumulate
[2] http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm/partial_sum

That'd be interesting if (a) lazy and (b) general a la https://dlang.org/library/std/range/recurrence.html. -- Andrei

I wrote a bit about this sort of thing here: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/2991#issuecomment-141816906
