Join the elements of a list, in correct english
Create a function join that takes a List and produces a string containing an english language concatenation of the list. It should work with the following examples:
join(
join(
join(
join(
join(
[Apple, Banana, Carrot]) = "Apple, Banana, and Carrot"
join(
[One, Two]) = "One and Two"
join(
[Lonely]) = "Lonely"
join(
[]) = ""

Produce the combinations from two lists
Given two lists, produce the list of tuples formed by taking the combinations from the individual lists. E.g. given the letters
["a", "b", "c"] and the numbers [4, 5], produce the list: [["a", 4], ["b", 4], ["c", 4], ["a", 5], ["b", 5], ["c", 5]]

Gather together corresponding elements from multiple lists
Given several lists, gather together the first element from every list, the second element from every list, and so on for all corresponding index values in the lists. E.g. for these three lists, first =
['Bruce', 'Tommy Lee', 'Bruce'], last = ['Willis', 'Jones', 'Lee'], years = [1955, 1946, 1940] the result should produce 3 actors. The middle actor should be Tommy Lee Jones.
python
first = ['Bruce', 'Tommy Lee', 'Bruce']
last = ['Willis', 'Jones', 'Lee']
years = [1955, 1946, 1940]
actors = zip(first, last, years)
assert len(actors) == 3
assert actors[1] == ('Tommy Lee', 'Jones', 1946)
last = ['Willis', 'Jones', 'Lee']
years = [1955, 1946, 1940]
actors = zip(first, last, years)
assert len(actors) == 3
assert actors[1] == ('Tommy Lee', 'Jones', 1946)

Test if a condition holds for all items of a list
Given a list, test if a certain logical condition (i.e. predicate) holds for all items of the list.
python
all(x > 1 for x in [2,3,4])
clojure
(every? #(> % 1) [2 3 4])
fsharp
let rec IsAll predicate source =
let mutable acc = true
for e in source do
acc <- acc && (predicate e)
acc
let mutable acc = true
for e in source do
acc <- acc && (predicate e)
acc
fantom
echo([2,3,4].all{ it>1 })
groovy
[2,3,4].every{it > 1}
erlang
Result = lists:all(Pred, List).
Test if a condition holds for any items of a list
Given a list, test if a certain logical condition (i.e. predicate) holds for any items of the list.
python
any(x > 3 for x in [2, 3, 4])
clojure
; The standard library in Clojure has "not-any?" but (oddly enough) no "any?"
(defn any? [pred coll]
((complement not-any?) pred coll))
(any? #(> % 3) [2 3 4])
(defn any? [pred coll]
((complement not-any?) pred coll))
(any? #(> % 3) [2 3 4])
(some #(> % 3) [2 3 4])
