+
+As written in documentation the reduce() method applies a function against an accumulator and each value of the array (from left-to-right) 
+to reduce it to a single value.
+
+reduce() function accepts 2 parameters (M: mandatory, O: optional):
+
+- (M) a callback **reducer function** to be applied that deals with a pair of previous (result of previous computation) and next element until end of the list.
+- (O) an **initial value** to be used as the first argument to the first call of the callback.
+
+So let's see a common usage and later a more sophisticated one.
+
+### Common usage (accumulation, concatenation)
+
+We are on Amazon website (prices in $) and our caddy is quite full, let's compute total.
+
+```javascript
+// my current amazon caddy purchases
+var items = [{price: 10}, {price: 120}, {price: 1000}];
+
+// our reducer function
+var reducer = function add(sumSoFar, nextPrice) { return sumSoFar + nextPrice.price; };
+
+// do the job
+var total = items.reduce(reducer, 0);
+
+console.log(total); // 1130
+```
+
+Optional reduce function parameter was primitive integer type 0 in that first case, but it could have been an Object, an Array...instead of a primitive type,
+but we will see that later.
+
+Now, cool I received a discount coupon of 20$.
+
+```javascript
+var total = items.reduce(reducer,-20);
+
+console.log(total); // 1110
+```
+
+### Advanced usage (combination)
+
+This second usage example is inspired by Redux [combineReducers](http://redux.js.org/docs/api/combineReducers.html) function [source](https://github.com/reactjs/redux/blob/master/src/combineReducers.js#L93).
+
+Idea behind is to separate reducer function into separate individual functions and at the end compute a new *single big reducer function*. 
+
+To illustrate this, let's create a single object literal with some reducers function able to compute total prices in different currency $, €...
+
+```javascript
+var reducers = {
+  totalInDollar: function(state, item) {
+    state.dollars += item.price;
+    return state;
+  },
+  totalInEuros : function(state, item) {
+    state.euros += item.price * 0.897424392;
+    return state;
+  },
+  totalInPounds : function(state, item) {
+    state.pounds += item.price * 0.692688671;
+    return state;
+  },
+  totalInYen : function(state, item) {
+    state.yens += item.price * 113.852;
+    return state;
+  }
+  // more...
+};
+```
+
+Then, we create a new swiss knife function 
+
+- responsible for applying each partial reduce functions.
+- that will return a new callback reducer function
+
+```javascript
+var combineTotalPriceReducers = function(reducers) {
+  return function(state, item) {
+    return Object.keys(reducers).reduce(
+      function(nextState, key) {
+        reducers[key](state, item);
+        return state;
+      },
+      {}      
+    );
+  }
+};
+```
+
+Now let's see how using it.
+
+```javascript
+var bigTotalPriceReducer = combineTotalPriceReducers(reducers);
+
+var initialState = {dollars: 0, euros:0, yens: 0, pounds: 0};
+
+var totals = items.reduce(bigTotalPriceReducer, initialState);
+
+console.log(totals);
+
+/*
+Object {dollars: 1130, euros: 1015.11531904, yens: 127524.24, pounds: 785.81131152}
+*/
+```
+
+I hope this approach can give you another idea of using reduce() function for your own needs.
+
+Your reduce function could handle an history of each computation by instance as it is done in Ramdajs with [scan](http://ramdajs.com/docs/#scan) function
