Is there a sequence-oriented equivalent to the sum built-in? E.g.:
seq_sum(((1, 2), (5, 6))) --> (1, 2) + (5, 6) --> (1, 2, 5, 6)
?
Yes, sum.
help(sum) is your friend.
You might not want to be so glib. The sum doc sure doesn't sound like
it should work on lists.
Returns the sum of a sequence of numbers (NOT strings) plus the value
of parameter 'start' (which defaults to 0).
