       If the first argument is a mapping, map() behaves  exactly
       like  map_mapping().   If  it  is  an array, map() behaves
       exactly like map_array().  If it's argument is  a  string,
       map()  passes  each character (as an int) to the function,
       and replaces the character with the return  value  if  the
       return value is a non-zero integer.
