A 140 bytes Array.prototype.reduce solution.
It should work as described on MDN.
If the array has no value and no initial value is passed, it raises an error. If the callback is not a function, it will fail when tempting to call it.
There is one major difference between ES5 specifications and this implementation: if the second parametter is specified but undefined, it won't be taken as initial value. There is no place to put a arguments.length here :(
| Array.prototype.reduce = | |
| [].reduce || // if not defined yet | |
| function( | |
| c, // callback function | |
| v // initial value (optionnal) | |
| ) { | |
| for( // iterate | |
| // make actions in the first for statement, save one ';' :) | |
| var t=this | |
| , u // undefined | |
| , i= // initialize i to: | |
| (u=v===u) // if initial value is not defined | |
| ? (v=t[0],1) // set initial value to first value and set i to 1 | |
| : 0; // else set i to 0 | |
| // for loop condition | |
| i < t.length; | |
| ) | |
| // for loop body | |
| v=c(v,t[i],i++,t); // call the callback with the arguments, save the result value | |
| i<2 & u && // if the array was empty and no default value was given | |
| u(); // raise a TypeError (u is not a function) | |
| return v // else return the result | |
| } |
| Array.prototype.reduce=[].reduce||function(c,v){for(var t=this,u,i=(u=v===u)?(v=t[0],1):0;i<t.length;)v=c(v,t[i],i++,t);i<2&u&&u();return v} |

I'll write an example later. I changed the æ trick to u(), which is on byte more (æ is two bytes) but raises a TypeError (which is expected).
awesome. you're probably the best man to tackle reduceRight too, so please give it a shot!
This fallback is not ES5 compliant.
Also browsers like Chrome have a bug where Array.prototype.reduce = [].reduce will cause Array#reduce to become enumerable.
For more information on what can be changed to make this method ES5 complaint and info on a critical bug, that this gist shares, please see my comments on a similar gist.
I wonder why initial value in Chrome can't be an empty array!
this looks great, i love using
æas a shortcut for throw. can you write a quick html example?
