One of the most common functional paradigms involves using a combination of <code>map</code>, <code>filter</code>, and <code>reduce</code> on Iterable types. However, Kotlin uses extension functions on Java Collections to create these functions in their standard library. That means that when you call <code>map</code> on a list, you’ll return a new list. This is usually intended, however, it can become problematic when chaining multiple operations on the same list — You’ll create a ton of intermediate lists!</p>
