I have a list (l), some object (o) and a verb (v) modifying the object:

l = l_0 l_1 ... l_n
o_new = o_old v l_i

The list items and the object have different types. I want to apply all the
list items to the object:

o_new = (...((o_old v l_0) v l_1) ... v l_n)     NB. the order of items
doesn't matter

Currently I do it like this:

o =: o_old
3 : 'o =: y v o' "0 l

I suspect, there must be some built-in feature for that, like / or ^:, so
that I could write e.g.
o_new =: o_old v REDUCE l, but I couldn't find a suitable
verb/adverb/conjunction.

Any help?

Thank you.
