Research direction
Read docs/features-of-v3.md, docs/rationale-for-v3.md, and docs/concept-exercises.md, then watch the linked Anatomy of a Concept Exercise video. Create the listed files under languages/clojure/exercises/concept/, including the documentation, design, example, source, and test files. Done means the exercise teaches reducing a function on a collection without covering transducers and follows the specified prerequisites and concept.
