      These restricted built-ins work the same as standard Python
      built-ins: *None*, *abs*, *apply*, *callable*, *chr*, *cmp*,
      *complex*, *delattr*, *divmod*, *filter*, *float*, *getattr*,
      *hash*, *hex*, *int*, *isinstance*, *issubclass*, *list*, *len*,
      *long*, *map*, *max*, *min*, *oct*, *ord*, *repr*, *round*,
      *setattr*, *str*, *tuple*.  For more information on what these
      built-ins do, see the online "Python
      Documentation":http://www.python.org/doc/.

         Why can't one use the reduce() command? It's very useful for list processing, and no more insecure than, say,
         map() or filter().
