### Map
One of the frequent operations is mapping some function on an array. For example, to extract some values.
```
[
{
"author": {
"name": "antonmedv"
},
...
},
{...},
{...},
...
]
```
And we want to collect names of each object in array. We can do this by mapping anonymous function:
```bash
$ cat ... | fx '.map(x => x.author.name)'
```
Or we can do the same by using `@` prefix:
```bash
$ cat ... | fx @.author.name
[
"antonmedv",
...
]
```
Expression followed by `@` symbol will be mapped to each element of array.
> Note what `@` can be applied to map object values.
> ```bash
> $ echo '{"foo": 1, "bar": 2}' | fx @+1
> [2, 3]
> ```
>
> Also note what symbol `@` alone is equivalent of `Object.values` function.
### Chaining
You can pass any number of anonymous functions for reducing JSON:
