Well, map and grep are usually seen as functions, but there's no denying that both map and grep are looping constructs.
But ultimely, what is the difference between an operator, a function or a syntax construct from a programmers aspect of view (other than using it to answer "where do I find this in the manual")? Would you code differently if map or grep were reclassified as a syntax or looping construct, or foreach as a function?
