I have a list of packages with version and I want to check on the system and compare the version with the list.  
I am able to check a single package using version\_compare. how can I compare with the list?

map/select/reject filters work on lists

map will return the full list, but can process the items via filter/test

select/reject return only the items that match/dont match a test
