## Syntax

```php
$arrayUtils->reduce(callable $callback, mixed $initialValue = null) : mixed;
```

### Parameter

* `$callback`

  > A function that produces an element of the new Array, taking four arguments:
  >
  > * `$accumulator`The accumulator accumulates callback's return values. It is the accumulated value previously returned in the last invocation of the callback—or `$initialValue`, if it was supplied (see below).
  > * `$value` The current element being processed in the array.
  > * `$key` The index of the current element being processed in the array.
  > * `$array`  The array `every` was called upon.
* `$initialValue` <img src="https://2976351099-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MKYhyHaArG9Gsnmdxc8%2F-MKk9I82AGQBHkmwnVvk%2F-MKk9YjCz_YkVR1YiRy-%2FBADGE_OPTIONAL.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=3fbbac84-2f1b-40af-a991-b2eff659866a" alt="" data-size="line">&#x20;
  * A value to use as the first argument to the first call of the callback.

### Return value

* The result value.
