In computer science, array programming languages (also known as vector or multidimensional languages) generalize operations on scalars to apply transparently to vectors, matrices, and higher-dimensional arrays.
Array programming primitives concisely express broad ideas about data manipulation. The level of concision can be dramatic in certain cases: it is not uncommon to find array programming language one-liners that require more than a couple of pages of Java code.
Modern programming languages that support array programming are commonly used in scientific and engineering settings; these include...

Given a list of integers, your task is to output the second largest value in the first k elements, for each k between 2 and the length of the input list.
In other words, output the second largest value for each prefix of the input.
You can output an arbitrary value for the first element (where ...

In a popular image editing software there is a feature, that patches (The term used in image processing is inpainting as @mınxomaτ pointed out.) a selected area of an image, based on the information outside of that patch. And it does a quite good job, considering it is just a program. As a human,...

Given an input list of non-empty strings, output an ASCII art representation of a tournament, based on the following drawing rules:
The number of strings is guaranteed to be of quantity 2,4,8,16,etc.
The first two strings play each other, and the next two play each other, and so on. This is the...
