Transducers for Composable Transformations

Transducers let you compose data transformations independently of the source or destination collection. This lesson builds on functions and laziness to show efficient, reusable pipelines.

The Pipeline Problem

Chaining map and filter creates intermediate sequences. Transducers describe the transformation once and apply it without those intermediates.

A Transducer Is a Recipe

Calling map or filter with a single argument returns a transducer, a transformation recipe with no collection attached.

(def xf (map inc))
; xf is a transducer, not a result yet
