fold and its ilk do have a specific name: higher-order functions. Just like fractions have numerators, it seems that higher-order functions should have foo as (one of) their arguments.

AFAI closing a question advertises “not searching at the right place!” because SX wants to focus on some kind of questions. While the question turns out not to have a unique positive answer one cannot rule this possibility out just by examining it and there is a clear negative answer “there is no such a thing.” Anyway, the reason why that question might be regarded as opinion based is convolved enough for leaving an explanation note, we are here far from “What is the best computer language?” | |
