{{task|Iteration}}

;Task: Loop over multiple arrays (or lists or tuples or whatever they're called in your language) and display the ''i'' th element of each.

Use your language's "for each" loop if it has one, otherwise iterate through the collection in order with some other loop.

For this example, loop over the arrays: (a,b,c) (A,B,C) (1,2,3) to produce the output: aA1 bB2 cC3

If possible, also describe what happens when the arrays are of different lengths.

If the arrays are not the same length, a subscript range error would occur when a non-existant element was accessed.

AppleScript

{{Trans|JavaScript}} (Functional ES 5 zipListsWith version)

If we have a generic Applescript '''map''' function, we can use it to write a generic '''zipListsWith''', which applies a given function over lists derived from the nth members of an arbitrary list of (equal-length) lists. (Where lists are of uneven length, items beyond the maximum shared length are ignored).

AutoHotkey

=== Pseudo-arrays === [http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/StringSplit.htm StringSplit] creates a pseudo-array

List1 = a,b,c
List2 = A,B,C
List3 = 1,2,3
MsgBox, % LoopMultiArrays()

List1 = a,b,c,d,e
List2 = A,B,C,D
List3 = 1,2,3
MsgBox, % LoopMultiArrays()


;---------------------------------------------------------------------------
LoopMultiArrays()

 { ; print the ith element of each
;---------------------------------------------------------------------------


    local Result
    StringSplit, List1_, List1, `,
    StringSplit, List2_, List2, `,
    StringSplit, List3_, List3, `,
    Loop, % List1_0
        Result .= List1_%A_Index% List2_%A_Index% List3_%A_Index% "`n"
    Return, Result
}

An array that is too short on creation will return empty strings when trying to retrieve further elements. The 2nd Message box shows:

aA1
bB2
cC3
dD
e

Real arrays

{{works with|AutoHotkey_L}} In [[AutoHotkey_L]], we can use true arrays ([http://l.autohotkey.com/docs/Objects.htm Objects]) and the [http://l.autohotkey.net/docs/commands/For.htm For loop].

List1 := ["a", "b", "c"]
List2 := ["A", "B", "C"]
List3 := [ 1 ,  2 ,  3 ]
MsgBox, % LoopMultiArrays()

List1 := ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"]
List2 := ["A", "B", "C", "D"]
List3 := [1,2,3]
MsgBox, % LoopMultiArrays()


LoopMultiArrays() {
    local Result
    For key, value in List1
        Result .= value . List2[key] . List3[key] "`n"
    Return, Result
}

The output from this script is identical to the first one.

AWK

BEGIN {
  split("a,b,c", a, ",");
  split("A,B,C", b, ",");
  split("1,2,3", c, ",");

  for(i = 1; i <= length(a); i++) {
    print a[i] b[i] c[i];
  }
}

Axe

Note that in this example, we use a few bytes from each of L₁, L₂, and L₃ for simplicity. In practice, one would want to arrange the arrays to all fit within L₁ to avoid volatility issues with L₂ and L₃.

'a'→{L₁}
'b'→{L₁+1}
'c'→{L₁+2}
'A'→{L₂}
'B'→{L₂+1}
'C'→{L₂+2}
1→{L₃}
2→{L₃+1}
3→{L₃+2}
For(I,0,2)
Disp {L₁+I}►Char,{L₂+I}►Char,{L₃+I}►Dec,i
End

Babel

There are two ways to do this in Babel. First, you could transpose the lists:

main: { (('a' 'b' 'c')('A' 'B' 'C')('1' '2' '3'))
simul_array }

simul_array!:
    { trans
    { { << } each "\n" << } each }

The 'trans' operator substitutes nil in the portions of each transposed column wherever a row list was shorter than the longest row list. The '<<' operator prints nothing if the top-of-stack is nil.

A more literal solution to the problem as presented would be to iterate across each list using a user-defined cdrall operator:

main: { (('a' 'b' 'c')('A' 'B' 'C')('1' '2' '3'))
simul_array }

simul_array!:
    {{ dup
        { car << } each
        cdrall }
        { allnil? not }
    while }

cdrall!: { { { cdr } each -1 take } nest }

-- only returns true if all elements of a list are nil
allnil?!:
    { 1 <->
    { car nil?
        { zap 0 last }
        { nil }
    if} each }

This solution is formally identical to the first and will handle lists of varying lengths by printing inserting nil and printing nothing for the tail ends of the short lists.

BBC BASIC

      DIM array1$(2), array2$(2), array3%(2)
      array1$() = "a", "b", "c"
      array2$() = "A", "B", "C"
      array3%() = 1, 2, 3

      FOR index% = 0 TO 2
        PRINT array1$(index%) ; array2$(index%) ; array3%(index%)
      NEXT

Befunge

There's no concept of an array data type in Befunge, but you'd typically store your arrays as sequences of data in the Befunge code space. You'd then loop over the range of indices required to access those arrays, and use the loop variable as an offset into each data area. For arrays of differing lengths, you'd need to manually check for an out-of-range index and deal with it appropriately.

C

Given several arrays, especially if they are heterogeneous, the most ordinary way to loop over all of them is to simply use an index variable. Determining when to stop is generally done in some application-specific way.

#include <stdio.h>

char a1[] = {'a','b','c'};
char a2[] = {'A','B','C'};
int a3[] = {1,2,3};

int main(void) {
    for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
        printf("%c%c%i\n", a1[i], a2[i], a3[i]);
    }
}

(Note: Some compilers may require a flag to accept this modern C code, such as gcc -std=c99.)

On the other hand, it is possible to write a more generic higher-order iteration scheme, as demonstrated in [[Loop_over_multiple_arrays_simultaneously/C-Elaboration|this example]]. There, a type for arrays with runtime-specified lengths and polymorphic printing is defined, and the iteration continues up to the length of the shortest array.

C#

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        char[] a = { 'a', 'b', 'c' };
        char[] b = { 'A', 'B', 'C' };
        int[] c = { 1, 2, 3 };
        int min = Math.Min(a.Length, b.Length);
        min = Math.Min(min, c.Length);
        for (int i = 0; i < min; i++)
            Console.WriteLine("{0}{1}{2}", a[i], b[i], c[i]);
    }
}

Using Enumerable.Zip (stops when either source runs out of elements):


int[] numbers = { 1, 2, 3, 4 };
string[] words = { "one", "two", "three" };
Console.WriteLine(numbers.Zip(words, (first, second) => first + " " +
 second));


Like how a perl programmer would write it (still using Zip):


Console.WriteLine((new[] { 1, 2, 3, 4 }).Zip(new[] { "a", "b", "c" },
(f, s) => f + " " + s));

Custom implementation for arrays of different lengths that pads with spaces after the end of the shorter arrays:


        public static void Multiloop(char[] A, char[] B, int[] C)
        {
            var max = Math.Max(Math.Max(A.Length, B.Length), C.Length);
            for (int i = 0; i < max; i++)
               Console.WriteLine($"{(i < A.Length ? A[i] : ' ')}, {(i < B.Length ? B[i] : ' ')}, {(i < C.Length ? C[i] : ' ')}");
        }

usage:

Multiloop(new char[] { 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd' }, new char[] { 'A', 'B', 'C' }, new int[] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 });

zip() allows to specify the stopping policy. On default it stops when the shortest range is exhausted (same as StoppingPolicy.shortest):

import std.stdio, std.range;

void main () {
    auto a1 = [1, 2];
    auto a2 = [1, 2, 3];
    alias StoppingPolicy sp;

    // Stops when the shortest range is exhausted
    foreach (p; zip(sp.shortest, a1, a2))
        writeln(p.tupleof);
    writeln();

    // Stops when the longest range is exhausted
    foreach (p; zip(sp.longest, a1, a2))
        writeln(p.tupleof);
    writeln();

    // Requires that all ranges are equal
    foreach (p; zip(sp.requireSameLength, a1, a2))
        writeln(p.tupleof);
}

    auto arr2 = [6, 7, 8, 9, 10];

    foreach (ref a, ref b; lockstep(arr1, arr2))
        a += b;

    assert(arr1 == [7, 9, 11, 13, 15]);

    // Lockstep also supports iteration with an index variable
    foreach (index, a, b; lockstep(arr1, arr2))
        writefln("Index %s:  a = %s, b = %s", index, a, b);

  Readln;

DWScript

If the arrays don't have the same bounds, an index out of bound exception will be triggered when attempting to access a non-existing element.

const a1 = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
const a2 = ['A', 'B', 'C'];
const a3 = [1, 2, 3];

var i : Integer;
for i := 0 to 2 do
   PrintLn(Format('%s%s%d', [a1[i], a2[i], a3[i]]));

E

E lacks a nice way to do this; this is [http://wiki.erights.org/wiki/Parallel_iteration to be fixed, once we figure out what to do]. However, iteration over an List produces its indexes as keys, so a not entirely awful idiom exists:

def a1 := ["a","b","c"]
def a2 := ["A","B","C"]
def a3 := ["1","2","3"]

for i => v1 in a1 {
    println(v1, a2[i], a3[i])
}

This will obviously fail if a2 or a3 are shorter than a1, and omit items if a2 or a3 are longer.

Given a parallel iteration utility, we might write this:

for [v1, v2, v3] in zip(a1, a2, a3) {
    println(v1, v2, v3)
}

zip cannot yet be defined for all collections (other than by iterating over each one and storing the results in a List first); but we can define it for numeric-indexed collections such as Lists, as below. Both a definition for any number of collections and two collections is given; the latter in order to demonstrate the principle without the clutter resulting from handling a variable number of collections.

def zip {
  to run(l1, l2) {
    def zipped {
      to iterate(f) {
        for i in int >= 0 {
          f(i, [l1.fetch(i, fn { return }),
                l2.fetch(i, fn { return })])
        }
      }
    }
    return zipped
  }

  match [`run`, lists] {
    def zipped {
      to iterate(f) {
        for i in int >= 0 {
          var tuple := []
          for l in lists {
            tuple with= l.fetch(i, fn { return })
          }
          f(i, tuple)
        }
      }
    }
    zipped
  }
}

(This will stop when the end of the shortest collection is reached.)

Erlang

Shortest option:

lists:zipwith3(fun(A,B,C)->
io:format("~s~n",[[A,B,C]]) end, "abc", "ABC", "123").

However, as every expression in Erlang has to return something, printing text returns 'ok'. A list with as many 'ok's as there are lines printed will thus be created. The technically cleanest way to do things would be with lists:foreach/2, which also guarantees evaluation order:

lists:foreach(fun({A,B,C}) ->
io:format("~s~n",[[A,B,C]]) end,
              lists:zip3("abc", "ABC", "123")).

If the lists are not all the same length, an error is thrown.

Euphoria

There are many ways to do this. All of them rely on what strings really are. If they are all "strings", it's quite easy:


sequence a, b, c

a = "abc"
b = "ABC"
c = "123"

for i = 1 to length(a) do
    puts(1, a[i] & b[i] & c[i] & "\n")
end for

If not, and the other sequence is known to contain only integers:


sequence a, b, c

a = "abc"
b = "ABC"
c = {1, 2, 3}

for i = 1 to length(a) do
    printf(1, "%s%s%g\n", {a[i], b[i], c[i]})
end for

A general solution for any arbitrary strings of characters or numbers can get a bit complex. This is because of how sequences are stored and printed out. One possible answer is as follows, if you know that only alphanumeric characters are used:


for i = 1 to length(a) do
    if (a[i] >= '0' and a[i] <= '9') then
	a[i] -= '0'
    end if
    if (b[i] >= '0' and b[i] <= '9') then
	b[i] -= '0'
    end if
    if (c[i] >= '0' and c[i] <= '9') then
	c[i] -= '0'
    end if
    printf(1, "%s%s%s\n", {a[i], b[i], c[i]})
end for

Just as in Java, using single quotes around a character gives you its "char value". In Euphoria, though, it is simply that character's code in ASCII.

With all three of the above solutions, if any of the strings are smaller than the first, it will return an error.

If the arrays are of different length (say, array ns has no third element), then when its turn comes the next unit of storage along from the second element will be accessed, its content interpreted as an integer, and its decimal value printed... If however, array bound checking is activated (or there is a memory access protection scheme that would detect this), a feature unavailable via many compilers and not the default on the rest, then an error will be detected and the run will be terminated, possibly with a somewhat helpful message.

If instead of reading the action had been to store a value into the array, then in the absence of bound checking, arbitrary damage will be done (to code or data) that will possibly result in something going wrong. And if you're lucky, it will happen swiftly.

Go

Go's "range clause" of a for statement only looks at a single iterable value (array, slice, etc). To access the three in parallel, they have to be explicitly indexed.

If a2 or a3 were shorter, the program would panic with "runtime error: index out of range". If a2 or a3 were longer, extra elements would be ignored. Go's philosophy is that you should explicitly check for whatever conditions are meaningful in your application and explicitly handle whatever errors are plausible.

package main

import "fmt"

var a1 = []string{"a", "b", "c"}
var a2 = []byte{'A', 'B', 'C'}
var a3 = []int{1, 2, 3}

func main() {
	for i := range a1 {
		fmt.Printf("%v%c%v\n", a1[i], a2[i], a3[i])
	}
}

If there are arrays of different size, the shorter are treated as "null-padded" array.

Solution:

    [a1, a2, a3].transpose().collect { "${it[0]}${it[1]}${it[2]}" }
}

For arrays of different types:

   ,.&:(":"0@>)/ 'abc' ; 'ABC' ; 1 2 3
aA1
bB2
cC3

This approach works by representing the digits as characters.

Where arrays are all the same type (all numeric or all string):

   ,.&:>/ 'abc' ; 'ABC' ; '123'
aA1
bB2
cC3

Both of these implementations reject arrays with conflicting lengths.

Other options include:

   |: 'abc', 'ABC' ,:;":&> 1 2 3
aA1
bB2
cC3
   |: 'abc', 'ABC',: '123'
aA1
bB2
cC3

These implementations pad short arrays with spaces.

Or:

   |:>]&.>L:_1 'abc';'ABC';<1 2 3
┌─┬─┬─┐
│a│A│1│
├─┼─┼─┤
│b│B│2│
├─┼─┼─┤
│c│C│3│
└─┴─┴─┘

This implementation puts each item from each of the original lists into a box and forms an array of boxes. (A "box" is a immutable pointer to immutable data -- in other words value semantics instead of reference semantics -- and "putting an item into a box" is obtaining one of these pointers for that item.) This implementation extends any short array by providing empty boxes to represent the missing elements. (An "empty box" is what a programmer in another language might call "a pointer to a zero length array".)

This loops over the indices of the first array, and uses that to index into the others.

var a = ["a","b","c"],
    b = ["A","B","C"],
    c = [1,2,3],
    output = "",
    i;
for (i = 0; i < a.length; i += 1) {
    output += a[i] + b[i] + c[i] + "\n";
}

If the b or c arrays are too "short", you will see the string "undefined" appear in the output.

Alternatively, we can nest a couple of calls to '''.forEach()''': one for the array of three arrays, and one for each of the three index positions:

var lstOut = ['', '', ''];

[["a", "b", "c"], ["A", "B", "C"], ["1", "2", "3"]].forEach(
  function (a) {
    [0, 1, 2].forEach(
      function (i) {
        // side-effect on an array outside the function
        lstOut[i] += a[i];
      }
    );
  }
);

// lstOut --> ["aA1", "bB2", "cC3"]

Functional composition

=ES5=

Functional options include folding across an array of arrays with the built-in '''Array.reduce()''', using a zipWith() function of suitable arity, or mapping over the output of a generic (any arity) zip() function.

(The generic zip function is the most tolerant – it simply ignores further elements in any arrays which are longer than the shortest array).

Reduce / fold:

(function (lstArrays) {

    return lstArrays.reduce(
        function (a, e) {
            return [
                a[0] + e[0],
                a[1] + e[1],
                a[2] + e[2]
            ];
        }, ['', '', ''] // initial copy of the accumulator
    ).join('\n');

})([
    ["a", "b", "c"],
    ["A", "B", "C"],
    ["1", "2", "3"]
]);

A fixed arity ZipWith:

(function (x, y, z) {

    // function of arity 3 mapped over nth items of each of 3 lists
    // (a -> b -> c -> d) -> [a] -> [b] -> [c] -> [d]
    function zipWith3(f, xs, ys, zs) {
        return zs.length ? [f(xs[0], ys[0], zs[0])].concat(
            zipWith3(f, xs.slice(1), ys.slice(1), zs.slice(1))) : [];
    }

    function concat(x, y, z) {
        return ''.concat(x, y, z);
    }

    return zipWith3(concat, x, y, z).join('\n')

})(["a", "b", "c"], ["A", "B", "C"], [1, 2, 3]);

Or we could write a generic '''zipListsWith''' applying some supplied function overs lists derived from the nth members of an arbitrary list of (equal-length) lists.

(function () {
    'use strict';

    // zipListsWith :: ([a] -> b) -> [[a]] -> [[b]]
    function zipListsWith(f, xss) {
        return (xss.length ? xss[0] : [])
            .map(function (_, i) {
                return f(xss.map(function (xs) {
                    return xs[i];
                }));
            });
    }

    // concat :: [a] -> s
    function concat(lst) {
        return ''.concat.apply('', lst);
    }

    // TEST
    return zipListsWith(
        concat,
        [["a", "b", "c"], ["A", "B", "C"], [1, 2, 3]]
    )
    .join('\n');
})();

jq

The following solution is based on the assumption that all the arrays can be presented as an array of arrays. This allows any number of arrays to be handled.

Specifically, zip/0 expects an array of 0 or more arrays as its input. The first array determines the number of items in the output; nulls are used for padding.

# zip/0 emits [] if input is [].

def zip:
  . as $in
  | [range(0; $in[0]|length) as $i | $in | map( .[$i] ) ];

Example 1: [["a","b","c"], ["A","B","C"], [1,2,3]] | zip {{Out}}


 [["a","A",1],["b","B",2],["c","C",3]]

To obtain the compact output used in the the task description, we can filter the results through a "pretty-print" function: def pp: reduce .[] as $i (""; . + "($i)");

Example 2: [["a","b","c"], ["A","B","C"], [1,2,3]] | zip | map(pp) {{Out}}


 [
  "aA1",
  "bB2",
  "cC3"
 ]

As already mentioned, the above definition of zip/0 privileges the first array, and if the subsequent arrays are of different lengths, null is used as a filler. Thus: [["a","b","c"], ["A","B"], [1]] | zip

produces: [["a","A",1],["b","B",null],["c",null,null]]

'''Handling jagged input''' An alternative approach would be use a variant of zip/0 that pads all arrays shorter than the longest with nulls. Here is such a variant:


# transpose a possibly jagged matrix
def transpose:
  if . == [] then []
  else (.[1:] | transpose) as $t
  | .[0] as $row
  | reduce range(0; [($t|length), (.[0]|length)] | max) as $i
         ([]; . + [ [ $row[$i] ] + $t[$i] ])
  end;

If the length of the arrays are different, then K croaks with "length error".

The following is a more general approach where


      &/#:'x

calculates the minimum length of the arrays and is used to index the first elements in each array.


   {+x[;!(&/#:'x)]}("abc";"ABC";"1234")

{{out}}

If the arrays are of different type, then the arrays must be converted to strings.

    (io:format "~s~s~p~n" `(,i ,j ,k)))
    '(a b c)
    '(A B C)
    '(1 2 3))

If any of the data lists differ in size from the other, the results will print out up to the shortest data list, and then raise a function_clause error.

Erlang, and thus LFE, have zipwith and zipwith3 for working with 2 and 3 simultaneous sets of data respectively. If you need more than that, you'll need to create your own "zip" function with something like (: lists map ...).

command loopArrays
    local lowA, uppA, nums, z
    put "a,b,c" into lowA
    put "A,B,C" into uppA
    put "1,2,3" into nums

    split lowA by comma
    split uppA by comma
    split nums by comma

    repeat with n = 1 to the number of elements of lowA
        put lowA[n] & uppA[n] & nums[n] & return after z
    end repeat
    put z

end loopArrays

"list" processing

command loopDelimitedList
    local lowA, uppA, nums, z
    put "a,b,c" into lowA
    put "A,B,C" into uppA
    put "1,2,3" into nums

    repeat with n = 1 to the number of items of lowA
        put item n of lowA & item n of uppA & item n of nums
& return after z
    end repeat
    put z

end loopDelimitedList

Output - both behave similarly for this exercise.

aA1
bB2
cC3

When there are fewer elements than the first (or whatever the loop is based on), livecode will add an "empty" value. If we add a "d" to lowA and a 4 to nums we get the following:

Lua

This can be done with a simple for loop:


a1, a2, a3 = {'a' , 'b' , 'c' } , { 'A' , 'B' , 'C' } , { 1 , 2 , 3 }
for i = 1, 3 do print(a1[i]..a2[i]..a3[i]) end

but it may be more enlightening (and in line with the spirit of the challenge) to use the generic for:


function iter(a, b, c)
  local i = 0
  return function()
    i = i + 1
    return a[i], b[i], c[i]
  end
end

for u, v, w in iter(a1, a2, a3) do print(u..v..w) end

Mathematica

This can be done with a built-in function:


MapThread[Print, {{"a", "b", "c"}, {"A", "B", "C"}, {1, 2, 3}}];

All arguments must be lists of the same length.

Since Z will return a list of lists (in this example, the first list is ('a', 'A', 1), parentheses are used around in the lambda signature ($x, $y, $z) to unpack the list for each iteration. ### Factoring out concatenation Note that we can also factor out the concatenation by making the Z metaoperator apply the ~ concatenation operator across each triple: ```perl6>.say for Z~ 1, 2, 3; ``` We could also use the zip-to-string with the reduction metaoperator: ```perl6 .say for [Z~] [], [], [1,2,3] ``` ### A list and its indices The common case of iterating over a list and a list of its indices can be done using the same method: ```perl6 for ^Inf Z -> ($i, $letter) { ... } ``` or by using the .kv (key and value) method on the list (and dropping the parentheses because the list returned by .kv is a flattened list): ```perl6>for $i, $letter { ... } ``` ## Phix Assumes a and b are strings and c is a sequence of integers. If the arguments were not all the same length, attempts to retrieve non-existent elements would trigger a fatal run-time error. ```Phix procedure print3(sequence a, b, c) for i=1 to min({length(a),length(b),length(c)}) do printf(1, "%s%s%g\n", {a[i], b[i], c[i]}) end for end procedure print3("abc","ABC",{1, 2, 3}) ``` {{out}} ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` ## PHP ```PHP $a = array('a', 'b', 'c'); $b = array('A', 'B', 'C'); $c = array('1', '2', '3'); //These don't *have* to be strings, but it saves PHP from casting them later if ((sizeOf($a) !== sizeOf($b)) || (sizeOf($b) !== sizeOf($c))){ throw new Exception('All three arrays must be the same length'); } foreach ($a as $key => $value){ echo "{$a[$key]}{$b[$key]}{$c[$key]}\n"; } ``` This implementation throws an exception if the arrays are not all the same length. ## PicoLisp ```PicoLisp (mapc prinl '(a b c) '(A B C) (1 2 3) ) ``` The length of the first argument list controls the operation. If subsequent lists are longer, their remaining values are ignored. If they are shorter, NIL is passed to the function. ## PL/I ```pli declare P(3) character (1) initial ('a', 'b', 'c'), Q(3) character (1) initial ('A', 'B', 'C'), R(3) fixed decimal (1) initial (1, 2, 3); do i = lbound(P,1) to hbound(P,1); put skip edit (P(i), Q(i), R(i)) (2 A, F(1)); end; ``` ## PostScript {{libheader|initlib}} ```postscript % transpose is defined in initlib like this. /transpose { [ exch { { {empty? exch pop} map all?} {pop exit} ift [ exch {} {uncons {exch cons} dip exch} fold counttomark 1 roll] uncons } loop ] {reverse} map }. % using it.

For example if a has size 4, line dD4 will also be printed. size 20 leads to an crash This is because ReDim becomes slow if everytime there is a change to array size new memory has to be allocated. ## Python Using zip(): ```python>>> print ( '\n'.join(''.join(x) for x in zip('abc', 'ABC', '123')) ) aA1 bB2 cC3 >>> ``` If lists are different lengths, zip() stops after the shortest one. Using map(): ```python>>> print(*map(''.join, zip('abc', 'ABC', '123')), sep='\n') aA1 bB2 cC3 >>> ``` If lists are different lengths, map() in Python 2.x pretends that the shorter lists were extended with None items; map() in Python 3.x stops after the shortest one. Using itertools.imap() (Python 2.x): ```python from itertools import imap def join3(a,b,c): print a+b+c imap(join3,'abc','ABC','123') ``` If lists are differnt lengths, imap() stops after the shortest is exhausted. Python 3.X has zip_longest which fills shorter iterables with its fillvalue argument which defaults to None (similar to the behavior of ''map()'' in Python 2.x): ```python>>> from itertools import zip_longest >>> print ( '\n'.join(''.join(x) for x in zip_longest('abc', 'ABCD', '12345', fillvalue='#')) ) aA1 bB2 cC3 #D4 ##5 >>> ``` (The Python 2.X equivalent is itertools.izip_longest) ## R ```R multiloop <- function(...) { # Retrieve inputs and convert to a list of character strings arguments <- lapply(list(...), as.character) # Get length of each input lengths <- sapply(arguments, length) # Loop over elements for(i in seq_len(max(lengths))) { # Loop over inputs for(j in seq_len(nargs())) { # print a value or a space (if that input has finished) cat(ifelse(i <= lengths[j], arguments[[j]][i], " ")) } cat("\n") } } multiloop(letters[1:3], LETTERS[1:3], 1:3) ``` Same thing as a single function call. But throws error if the arrays differ in length. ```R apply(data.frame(letters[1:3], LETTERS[1:3], 1:3), 1, function(row) { cat(row, "\n", sep='') }) ``` ## Racket Racket for loops can loop over an arbitrary number of sequences of any kind at once: ```racket #lang racket (for ([x '(a b c)] ; list [y #(A B C)] ; vector [z "123"] [i (in-naturals 1)]) ; 1, 2, ... infinitely (printf "~s: ~s ~s ~s\n" i x y z)) ``` The loop stops as soon as the first sequence terminates -- in the above case i can iterate forever but looping stops when we reach the end of the list/vector/string. (The same holds for multiple containers of different sizes.) ## Red The word repeat evaluates a given block! a specified number of times and exposes the count value to the block! being executed. When a variable is used in a path notation, we put a colon in front of it. :counter ```Red>> blk: [["a" "b" "c"] ["A" "B" "C"] [1 2 3]] == [["a" "b" "c"] ["A" "B" "C"] [1 2 3]] >> repeat counter 3 [print [blk/1/:counter blk/2/:counter blk/3/:counter]] a A 1 b B 2 c C 3 ``` ## REXX ### same size arrays If any of the array's elements are missing or it is a short list, a blank is substituted to retain visual fidelity in the output. When ''all'' elements are blank, then it signifies the end of the arrays. ```rexx /*REXX program shows how to simultaneously loop over multiple arrays.*/ x. = ' '; x.1 = "a"; x.2 = 'b'; x.3 = "c" y. = ' '; y.1 = "A"; y.2 = 'B'; y.3 = "C" z. = ' '; z.1 = "1"; z.2 = '2'; z.3 = "3" do j=1 until output='' output = x.j || y.j || z.j say output end /*j*/ /*stick a fork in it, we're done.*/ ``` '''output''' ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` ### dissimilar sized arrays In this example, two of the arrays are extended (past the 1st example). Also note that REXX doesn't require quotes around non-negative numbers (they're optional). ```rexx /*REXX program shows how to simultaneously loop over multiple arrays.*/ x.=' '; x.1="a"; x.2='b'; x.3="c"; x.4='d' y.=' '; y.1="A"; y.2='B'; y.3="C"; z.=' '; z.1= 1 ; z.2= 2 ; z.3= 3 ; z.4= 4; z.5= 5 do j=1 until output='' output=x.j || y.j || z.j say output end /*j*/ /*stick a fork in it, we're done.*/ ``` '''output''' ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 d 4 5 ``` ### dissimilar sized lists ```rexx /*REXX program shows how to simultaneously loop over multiple lists.*/ x = 'a b c d' y = 'A B C' z = 1 2 3 4 do j=1 until output='' output = word(x,j) || word(y,j) || word(z,j) say output end /*j*/ /*stick a fork in it, we're done.*/ ``` '''output''' ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 d4 ``` ### idiomatic method for lists ```rexx /*REXX program shows how to simultaneously loop over multiple lists.*/ x = 'a b c d' y = 'A B C' z = 1 2 3 4 ..LAST do j=1 for max(words(x), words(y), words(z)) say word(x,j) || word(y,j) || word(z,j) end /*j*/ /*stick a fork in it, we're done.*/ ``` '''output''' ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 d4 ..LAST ``` ## Ring ```ring array1 = ["a", "b", "c"] array2 = ["A", "B", "C"] array3 = [1, 2, 3] for n = 1 to 3 see array1[n] + array2[n] + array3[n] + nl next ``` ## Ruby ```ruby ['a','b','c'].zip(['A','B','C'], [1,2,3]) {|i,j,k| puts "#{i}#{j}#{k}"} ``` or ```ruby ['a','b','c'].zip(['A','B','C'], [1,2,3]) {|a| puts a.join} ``` Both of these loops print aA1, bB2, cC3. Array#zip iterates once for each element of the receiver. If an argument array is longer, the excess elements are ignored. If an argument array is shorter, the value nil is supplied. ```ruby irb(main):001:0> ['a','b','c'].zip(['A','B'], [1,2,3,4]) {|a| puts a.join} aA1 bB2 c3 => nil irb(main):002:0> ['a','b','c'].zip(['A','B'], [1,2,3,4]) => [["a", "A", 1], ["b", "B", 2], ["c", nil, 3]] ``` ## Run BASIC ```runbasic for i = 1 to 3 a$(i) = chr$(i+96) b$(i) = chr$(i+64) c(i) = i next i for i = 1 to 3 print a$(i);b$(i);c(i) next ``` ## Rust ```rust fn main() { let a1 = ["a", "b", "c"]; let a2 = ["A", "B", "C"]; let a3 = [1, 2, 3]; for ((&x, &y), &z) in a1.iter().zip(a2.iter()).zip(a3.iter()) { println!("{}{}{}", x, y, z); } } ``` {{out}} ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` ## Salmon ```Salmon // First, we'll define a general-purpose zip() to zip any // number of lists together. function zip(...) { variable result; variable list_num := 0; iterate(arg; arguments) { variable elem_num := 0; iterate (x; arg) { result[elem_num][list_num] := x; ++elem_num; }; ++list_num; }; return result; }; immutable a := ["a", "b", "c"], b := ["A", "B", "C"], c := [1, 2, 3]; iterate (x; zip(a, b, c)) print(x[0], x[1], x[2], "\n");; ``` The preceding code will throw an exception if the lists aren't the same length. Here's an example that will print a number of lines equal to the length of the longest list and print nothing for elements that are missing if some lists are shorter than the longest: ```Salmon // First, we'll define a general-purpose zip() to zip any // number of lists together. function zip(...) { variable result := []; variable list_num := 0; iterate(arg; arguments) { variable elem_num := 0; iterate (x; arg) { if (elem_num >= length(result)) result[elem_num] := <<(* --> "")>>;; result[elem_num][list_num] := x; ++elem_num; }; ++list_num; }; return result; }; immutable a := ["a", "b", "c"], b := ["A", "B", "C"], c := [1, 2, 3]; iterate (x; zip(a, b, c)) print(x[0], x[1], x[2], "\n");; ``` ## Sather ```sather class MAIN is main is a :ARRAY{STR} := |"a", "b", "c"|; b :ARRAY{STR} := |"A", "B", "C"|; c :ARRAY{STR} := |"1", "2", "3"|; loop i ::= 0.upto!(2); #OUT + a[i] + b[i] + c[i] + "\n"; end; end; end; ``` If the index ''i'' is out of bounds, a runtime error is raised. ## Scala ```scala ("abc", "ABC", "123").zipped foreach { (x, y, z) => println(x.toString + y + z) } ``` ## Scheme Scheme provides for-each and map to iterate a function over one or more lists. The map form is used to collect the results into a new list. ```scheme (let ((a '("a" "b" "c")) (b '("A" "B" "C")) (c '(1 2 3))) (for-each (lambda (i1 i2 i3) (display i1) (display i2) (display i3) (newline)) a b c)) ``` Scheme has a vector datatype with constant-time retrieval of items held in an ordered sequence. Use srfi-43 to get similar iterators for vectors, vector-for-each and vector-map: ```scheme (let ((a (vector "a" "b" "c")) (b (vector "A" "B" "C")) (c (vector 1 2 3))) (vector-for-each (lambda (current-index i1 i2 i3) (display i1) (display i2) (display i3) (newline)) a b c)) ``` Note, the lists or vectors must all be of the same length. ## Sidef The simplest way is by using the Array.zip{} method: ```ruby [%w(a b c),%w(A B C),%w(1 2 3)].zip { |i,j,k| say (i, j, k) } ``` {{out}} ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` ## Smalltalk {{works with|GNU Smalltalk}} ```smalltalk |a b c| a := OrderedCollection new addAll: #('a' 'b' 'c'). b := OrderedCollection new addAll: #('A' 'B' 'C'). c := OrderedCollection new addAll: #(1 2 3). 1 to: (a size) do: [ :i | (a at: i) display. (b at: i) display.

Longer arrays ignore their extra elements, but shorter arrays force the shell to exit with an error like ''b: Subscript out of range.'' ```csh set a=(a b c) set b=(A B C) set c=(1 2 3) @ i = 1 while ( $i <= $#a ) echo "$a[$i]$b[$i]$c[$i]" @ i += 1 end ``` ## Ursa Looping over multiple arrays in an interactive session: ```ursa>> decl string< a b c > append (split "abc" "") a > append (split "ABC" "") b > append (split "123" "") c > for (decl int i) (< i (size a)) (inc i) .. out a b c endl console ..end aA1 bB2 cC3 > _ ``` If either of the arrays are smaller than (size a), then an indexerror is thrown. This could be caught with a try...catch block. ## Ursala Compute the transpose of the list formed of the three lists. If they're of unequal lengths, an exception occurs. ```Ursala #show+ main = ~&K7 <'abc','ABC','123'> ``` {{out}} ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` ## Visual FoxPro ```vfp LOCAL i As Integer, n As Integer, c As String LOCAL ARRAY a1[3], a2[3], a3[4], a[3] *!* Populate the arrays and store the array lengths in a a1[1] = "a" a1[2] = "b" a1[3] = "c" a[1] = ALEN(a1) a2[1] = "A" a2[2] = "B" a2[3] = "C" a[2] = ALEN(a2) a3[1] = "1" a3[2] = "2" a3[3] = "3" a3[4] = "4" a[3] = ALEN(a3) *!* Find the maximum length of the arrays *!* In this case, 4 n = MAX(a[1], a[2], a[3]) ?

Enumerable.Zip stops when either source runs out of elements, so the behavior of the two implementations is identical for arrays of different lengths. ```vbnet Module Program Sub Main() Dim a As Char() = {"a"c, "b"c, "c"c} Dim b As Char() = {"A"c, "B"c, "C"c} Dim c As Integer() = {1, 2, 3} Dim minLength = {a.Length, b.Length, c.Length}.Min() For i = 0 To minLength - 1 Console.WriteLine(a(i) & b(i) & c(i)) Next Console.WriteLine() For Each el As (a As Char, b As Char, c As Integer) In a.Zip(b, Function(l, r) (l, r)).Zip(c, Function(x, r) (x.l, x.r, r)) Console.WriteLine(el.a & el.b & el.c) Next End Sub End Module ``` {{out}} ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` ## Wart ```wart each (x X n) (zip '(a b c) '(A B C) '(1 2 3)) prn x X n ``` ## XPL0 ```XPL0 string 0; \use zero terminated strings include c:\cxpl\codes; \intrinsic 'code' declarations char A1, A2; int A3, I; [A1:= "abc"; A2:= "ABC"; A3:= [1,2,3]; for I:= 0 to 2 do [ChOut(0, A1(I)); ChOut(0, A2(I)); IntOut(0, A3(I)); CrLf(0); ]; ] ``` {{out}} ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` ## zkl ```zkl foreach a,b,c in (["a".."c"].zip(T("A","B","C"),[1..])){ println(a,b,c) } ``` or ```zkl Utils.zipWith(False,fcn{vm.arglist.concat().println()}, ["a".."c"],T("A","B","C"),[1..]) ``` {{out}} ```txt aA1 bB2 cC3 ``` zip[With] stops at the end of the shortest sequence, which means it can work with infinite sequences ## ZX Spectrum Basic ```zxbasic 10 LET sza = 3: REM size of a 20 LET szb = 3: REM size of b 30 LET szc = 3: REM size of c 40 DIM a$(sza): DIM b$(szb): DIM c$(szc) 50 LET max = sza: REM assume a is the biggest 60 IF szb > max THEN LET max = szb: REM now try b 70 IF szc > max THEN LET max = szc: REM or c 80 REM populate our arrays, and as a bonus we already have our demo loop 90 REM we might as well print as we populate showing the arrays in columns 100 FOR l = 1 TO max 110 IF l <= sza THEN READ a$(l): PRINT a$(l); 120 IF l <= szb THEN READ b$(l): PRINT b$(l); 130 IF l <= szc THEN READ c$(l): PRINT c$(l); 140 PRINT: REM newline 150 NEXT l 150 PRINT "The arrays are shown in columns." 160 PRINT "A$ runs down the left hand side," 170 PRINT "and C$ runs down the right." 180 STOP 200 DATA "a","b","c","A","B","C","1","2","3" ``` Simplification ```zxbasic 10 READ size: DIM a$(size): DIM b$(size): DIM c$(size) 20 FOR i=1 TO size 30 READ a$(i),b$(i),c$(i) 40 PRINT a$(i);b$(i);c$(i) 50 NEXT i 60 DATA 3,"a","A","1","b","B","2","c","C","3" ```
