How about:

from functools import partial, reduce
from operator import mul
def rcall(arg, func): return func(arg)
def fpipe(*args): return reduce(rcall, args)
pfilter = partial(partial, filter)
pmap = partial(partial, map)
preduce = partial(partial, reduce)

fpipe("abcd12345xyz", pfilter(str.isdigit), pmap(int), preduce(mul))
