Loop over multiple arrays simultaneously

From Rosetta Code
Task
Loop over multiple arrays simultaneously
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
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.

8080 Assembly

The 8080 has no indexing mechanism at all, so generally one would iterate over arrays by incrementing the pointers in-place rather than do it this way, but it can (just about) be done.

The 8080 has 7 eight-bit registers (A, B, C, D, E, H, L), six of which can form three 16-bit pairs (BC, DE, HL). Of those, HL is special: only it can be used for math, and it can be used as a pointer (the 8-bit pseudo-register M refers to the byte in memory at [HL]). Furthermore, the contents of DE and HL can be swapped, so a secondary pointer can be kept in DE and easily accessed. However, this cannot be done with BC.

Therefore, this code keeps the index in BC, and the list of arrays in DE. Array access is done by loading the array pointers into HL one by one, calculating the address by adding BC to it, then loading the appropriate value.

This code simply assumes that the arrays are all the same size (Alen), and if they are not, it will simply read from the wrong addresses.

8086 Assembly

The 8086 processor has two index registers si and di, and an address register bx. (There is also the base pointer bp, which is used to point to the stack segment, and is not used here.)

When addressing memory, the 8086 can automatically add up: 1) one of bx or bp, plus 2) one of si or di, plus 3) a direct address.

This code uses si to keep track of the current index, and loads the base addresses of the arrays into bx one by one.

APL

In APL, one would not use an explicit loop for this. Rather, there is a built-in function to turn a vector of vectors into a matrix, which is . The matrix can be transposed (), and then turned back into a nested vector (). The elements could be processed linearly afterwards.

If the input vectors are not all the same size, the shorter vectors will be padded with empty values (spaces for character vectors, zeroes for numeric vectors) to match the longest vector.

      f 'abc' 'ABC' '123'

(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).

-- ZIP LISTS WITH FUNCTION ---------------------------------------------------

AutoHotkey

Pseudo-arrays

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

Real arrays

Works with: AutoHotkey_L

In AutoHotkey_L, we can use true arrays (Objects) and the 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, ",");

    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.

If they have different lengths there are two cases:
a() is the shortest one: Only elements up to maximum index of a() are printed
a() is bigger than another one: if exceeding index to much, program crashes,
else it may work because there is some "free space" after end of assigned array memory.
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.

Visual Basic .NET

Two implementations: one determines the shortest of the arrays and uses a simple For loop with element accesses to each array separately; one uses Enumerable.Zip (which can only zip two sequences at once) twice to create 3-tuples. Enumerable.Zip stops when either source runs out of elements, so the behavior of the two implementations is identical for arrays of different lengths.

This solution accounts for arrays of varying lengths, and if they are interspersed with undefined characters by replacing them with spaces.

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.

0 >:2g,:3g,:4gv
@_^#`2:+1,+55,<
abc
ABC
123

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 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 });

C++

With std::vectors:

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
   std::vector<char> ls(3); ls[0] = 'a'; ls[1] = 'b'; ls[2] = 'c';

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);
}
Output:

Followed by an exception with message "Inequal-length ranges passed to Zip".

There is also std.range.lockstep:

import std.stdio, std.range;

void main() {
    auto arr1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
    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);
}

Lower level code that stops at the shortest length:

import std.stdio, std.algorithm;

void main () {
    auto s1 = "abc";
    auto s2 = "ABC";
    auto a1 = [1, 2];

    foreach (i; 0 .. min(s1.length, s2.length, a1.length))

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.)

Explanation

The `require' Design-by-Contract assertion is a statement of software correctness. It states that all items in `a_array' must have a count > 0 (no empty of type BOUNDED).

If you examine the `input_data', you will see that collection 1 is not just "abc", but is "abcde" (5 character element items in a BOUNDED string). The same is true for the last numeric ARRAY, which has 4 integers. This is done to demonstrate that the `example' code is robust enough to take variants in the inputs in terms of item counts.

The first ⟳ ¦ ⟲ (symbolic across) loop seeks out the count of the smallest (min) collection. In this case, the middle item (#2) has only 3 elements, so this routine will only process the first 3 elements of each collection in the containing array.

Next, we create the output STRING in the `Result'.

Finally, the last ⟳ ¦ ⟲ (symbolic across) loop has a nested loop. The outer loop counts the elements (1-3) and the inner loop goes of the contained collections, adding the j-th element of the i-th collection. This repeats until all of `j' is exhausted for all of `i'.

The code above can be written shorter. First there is no need in lists as soon as strings in Ela can be treated as lists. Also instead of explicit labmda one can use partial application and a standard composition operator:

xs = zipWith3 (\x -> (x++) >> (++)) "abc" "ABC"
 "123"

Elixir

string list:

l1 = ["a", "b", "c"]
l2 = ["A", "B", "C"]
l3 = ["1", "2", "3"]
IO.inspect List.zip([l1,l2,l3]) |> Enum.map(fn x-> Tuple.to_list(x) |> Enum.join end)
#=> ["aA1", "bB2", "cC3"]

char_list:

l1 = 'abc'
l2 = 'ABC'
l3 = '123'
IO.inspect List.zip([l1,l2,l3]) |> Enum.map(fn x-> Tuple.to_list(x) end)
#=> ['aA1', 'bB2', 'cC3']

When the length of the list is different:

iex(1)> List.zip(['abc','ABCD','12345']) |> Enum.map(&Tuple.to_list(&1))
['aA1', 'bB2', 'cC3']
iex(2)> List.zip(['abcde','ABC','12']) |> Enum.map(&Tuple.to_list(&1))
['aA1', 'bB2']

The zipping finishes as soon as any enumerable completes.

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.

F#

for c1,c2,n in Seq.zip3 ['a';'b';'c'] ['A';'B';'C']

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])
	}
}

Golfscript

["a" "b" "c"]:a;
["A" "B" "C"]:b;

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

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

Test:

def x = ['a', 'b', 'c']
def y = ['A', 'B', 'C']
def z = [1, 2, 3]

synchedConcat(x, y, z).each { println it }

If the arrays are not of equal length, the iteration stops after the last item of the smaller array has been processed; any extra items of lengthier arrays are ignored (or in other words, the iteration counter never exceeds the length of the smaller array, thus preventing an 'out of subscript range' error).

J

Since J's primitives are designed for handling what some programmers might think of as "an array monad" of arbitrary rank, a natural approach would be to concatenate the multiple arrays into a single array. In many cases we would already have done so to pass these arrays as an argument to some user defined routine. So, let's first see how that could look:

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
┌─┬─┬─┐
aA1
├─┼─┼─┤
bB2
├─┼─┼─┤
cC3
└─┴─┴─┘

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".)

That said, it's also worth noting that a single explicit loop could also be used here. For example,

charcols=: {{
  'one two three'=. y
  for_a. one do.
    echo a,(a_index{two),":a_index{three
  end.
}}

   charcols 'abc';'ABC';1 2 3
aA1
bB2
cC3

Java

String[][] list1 = {{"a","b","c"}, {"A", "B", "C"}, {"1", "2", "3"}};
        for (int i = 0; i < list1.length; i++) {
            for (String[] lista : list1) {
                System.out.print(lista[i]);
            }
            System.out.println();
        }

JavaScript

Imperative

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
Output:
 [["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)
Output:
 [
  "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;

Julia

With a higher order function:

foreach(println, ('a', 'b', 'c'), ('A', 'B', 'C'), (1, 2, 3))

With a loop:

for (i, j, k) in zip(('a', 'b', 'c'), ('A', 'B', 'C'), (1, 2, 3))
    println(i, j, k)
end
Output:
aA1
bB2
cC3

K

{,/$x}'+("abc";"ABC";1 2 3)
Output:
("aA1"
 "bB2"
 "cC3")    

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")
Output:
("aA1"
 "bB2"
 "cC3")
 

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

   {a:,/'($:'x);+a[;!(&/#:'a)]}("abc";"ABC";1 2 3 4)

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

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 ...).

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

M2000 Interpreter

While End While can used for iterator type objects. We can use comma to use more than one iterator, or we can use folded While End While. When we use comma the iteration end when any of the iterators before iterate get the false state (no other iteration allowed). So for this example in While End while it is like we use i1 and i2 and i3, but with a comma (this only apply to While structure - and While { } structure - without End WhileSuperscript text. We can't use and operator because this return Boolean type always. Using the iterator at While we get the object, and Interpreter check if this is an iterator object and go on to advance to next item, or to break the loop. We can use i1^ to get the index of the iteration according to specific object.

OCaml

an immediate solution:

let a1 = [| 'a'; 'b'; 'c' |]
and a2 = [| 'A'; 'B'; 'C' |]
and a3 = [| '1'; '2'; '3' |] ;;

Array.iteri (fun i c1 ->
  print_char c1;
  print_char a2.(i);
  print_char a3.(i);
  print_newline()
) a1 ;;

a more generic solution could be to use a function which iterates over a list of arrays:

let n_arrays_iter ~f = function
  | [] -> ()
  | x::xs as al ->
      let len = Array.length x in
      let b = List.for_all (fun a -> Array.length a = len) xs in
      if not b then invalid_arg "n_arrays_iter: arrays of different 
length";
      for i = 0 to pred len do
        let ai = List.map (fun a -> a.(i)) al in
        f ai
      done

this function raises Invalid_argument exception if arrays have different

length, 

and has this signature:

val n_arrays_iter : f:('a list -> unit) -> 'a 
array list -> unit

how to use it with arrays a1, a2 and a3 defined before:

let () =
  n_arrays_iter [a1; a2; a3] ~f:(fun l ->
    List.iter print_char l;
    print_newline());

This implementation will stop producing items when the shortest array ends.

Phix

Library: Phix/basics

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 could trigger a fatal run-time error, were it not for the min(). In print3, fairly obviously, we only extract up to the shortest length. The builtin columnize() routine can perform a similar task: I have provided a space defval and replaced the 3rd array with a string to ensure we get strings back, and extended it to show how columnize uses that default value for missing entries off the end of the first two arrays.

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})
?columnize({"abc","ABC","1234"},{},' ')
Output:

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.

Picat

Picat has a built-in zip/n which only works with lists (not arrays). It returns an array tuple ({A,B,C}) and not a list ([A,B,C]), which is a typical gotcha.

For this task, a foreach loop and list comprenhension are shown.

If the lists/arrays are of uneven lengths, then the elements in the longer arrays are skipped.

import util.

go =>

  L1 = ["a","b","c"], 
  L2 = ["A","B","C"],
  L3 = ["1","2","3"],

  println("foreach loop:"),
  foreach({A,B,C} in zip(L1,L2,L3))
    println([A,B,C].join(''))
  end,
  nl,

  println("list comprehension/n:"),
  println( [[A,B,C].join('') : {A,B,C} in zip(L1,L2,L3)].join("\n")),
  nl,

  % With uneven lengths the last elements in the longer lists are skipped.
  println("Uneven lengths:"),
  L4 = ["P","Q","R","S"], % longer than the other
  foreach({A,B,C,D} in zip(L1,L2,L3,L4)) 
    println([A,B,C,D].join('')) 
  end,
  nl.
Output:
foreach loop:

bB2
cC3

list comprehension/n:
aA1

Uneven lengths:

bB2Q

PicoLisp

(mapc prinl

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.

Python

Using zip():

>>> 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():

>>> 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):

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):

>>> 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)

Quackery

The code presented here will loop as many times as the number of characters in the first nest (i.e. "abc" in the example). If either of the other two nests are shorter than the first then the program will report a problem.

        dup  i^ peek emit
        cr ]

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.

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:

#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.)

Raku

(formerly Perl 6)

Works with: rakudo version 2015.12

Note that all of the following work with any iterable object, (array, list, range, sequence; anything that does the Iterable role), not just arrays.

Basic functionality

for <a b c> Z <A B C> Z 1, 2, 3 -> ($x, $y, $z) {
   say $x, $y, $z;
}

The Z operator stops emitting items as soon as the shortest input list is exhausted. However, short lists are easily extended by replicating all or part of the list, or by appending any kind of lazy list generator to supply default values as necessary.

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:

.say for <a b c> Z~ <A B C> Z~ 1, 2, 3;

We could also use the zip-to-string with the reduction metaoperator:

.say for [Z~] <a b c>, <A B C>, (1,2,3);

We could also write that out "long-hand":

.say for zip :with(&infix:<~>), <a b c>, <A B C>, (1,2,3);

returns the exact same result so if you aren't comfortable with the concise operators, you have a choice.

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:

for ^Inf Z <a b c d> -> ($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):

for <a b c d>.kv -> $i, $letter { ... }

Iterate until all exhausted

If you have different sized lists that you want to pull a value from each per iteration, but want to continue until all of the lists are exhausted, we have roundrobin.

.put for roundrobin <a b c>, 'A'..'G', ^5;
yields:
a A 0
b B 1
c C 2
D 3
E 4
F
G

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

>>blk: [["a" "b" "c"] ["A" "B" "C"] [1 2 3]]
== [["a" "b" "c"] ["A" "B" "C"] [1 2 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.

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:

// 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)
          {

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.

(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:

(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:

[%w(a b c),%w(A B C),%w(1 2 3)].zip { |i,j,k|
    say (i, j, k)
}
Output:
aA1
bB2
cC3

Smalltalk

Works with: GNU 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.
  (c at: i) displayNl.
].

If index i is out of bound, a runtime error is raised.

Actually, there is no need for the extra OrderedCollections as in the above example.
Also, most Smalltalks (all?) can concatenate non-string args¹.
At least in ST/X, the following works ¹:

|a b c|

a := #('a' 'b' 'c').
b := #('A' 'B' 'C').
c := #(1 2 3).
1 to: (a size) do: [ :i |
  ((a at: i),(b at: i),(c at: i)) displayNl.
].

Another alternative is to use a multi-collection enumerator, which hides the element access (transparent to how elements are stored inside the collection):

|a b c|

a := #('a' 'b' 'c').
b := #('A' 'B' 'C').
c := #(1 2 3).
a with:b with:c do:[:ai :bi :ci |
  (ai,bi,ci) displayNl.
].

1) concatenation of integer objects as shown above may require a change in the , (comma) implementation, to send "asString" to the argument.

Stata

Use an index variable.

local u a b c
local v A B C
matrix w=1,2,3
forv i=1/3 {
	di "`: word `i' of `u''`: word `i' of `v''`=el("w",1,`i')'"

end

SuperCollider

Using three variables and indexing (SuperCollider posts the last statement in the REPL)

#x, y, z = [["a", "b", "c"], ["A", "B", "C"], ["1", "2", "3"]];
3.collect { |i| x[i] ++ y[i] ++ z[i] }

A more idiomatic way of writing it, independent of the number of dimensions:

[["a", "b", "c"], ["A", "B", "C"], ["1", "2", "3"]].flop.collect { |x| x.join }

Or simpler:

[["a", "b", "c"], ["A", "B", "C"], ["1", "2", "3"]].flop.collect(_.join)


Same with lamination (a concept from APL/J):

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

Independent of dimensions:

[["a", "b", "c"], ["A", "B", "C"], ["1", "2", "3"]].reduce('+++')

Swift

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

for i in 0 ..< a1.count {

Tailspin

Simplest iteration with an ordinary "loop" that will error on uneven sizes

  def n: $(1)::length;
  [ 1..$n -> $a(1..last; $) ] !
end transpose

[$x, $y, $z] -> transpose... -> '$...;
' -> !OUT::write

A more complex transpose that uses "foreach" more in line with the task proposal and handles uneven arrays

def u: ['a', 'b'];
def v: ['A', 'B', 'C'];
def w: [1];

templates transpose2
  @: [];
  $... -> \[i](
    when <?($i <..$@transpose2::length>)> do ..|@transpose2($i): $;

set list1 {a b c}
set list2 {A B C}
set list3 {1 2 3}
foreach i $list1 j $list2 k $list3 {
    puts "$i$j$k"
}

If lists are different lengths, the manual [1] says: "The total number of loop iterations is large enough to use up all the values from all the value lists. If a value list does not contain enough elements for each of its loop variables in each iteration, empty values are used for the missing elements."

TorqueScript

$var[0] = "a b c"
$var[1] = "A B C";
$var[2] = "1 2 3";

UNIX Shell

With the Bourne shell, its for loop (from Loops/Foreach#UNIX Shell) can iterate only one list. We use an index i to access the other lists: set -- $list loads the positional parameters, and shift $i moves our element to $1.

Works with: Bourne Shell
a=a:b:c
b=A:B:C
c=1:2:3

oldifs=$IFS
IFS=:
i=0
for wa in $a; do
	set -- $b; shift $i; wb=$1
	set -- $c; shift $i; wc=$1

	printf '%s%s%s\n' $wa $wb $wc

	i=`expr $i + 1`
done
IFS=$oldifs
Output:
aA1
bB2
cC3

When the lists have different lengths, this code uses the length of list

a. Longer lists ignore their extra elements, 

and shorter lists give extra empty strings.


Inspired by the previous example, below is the way to loop over two arrays simultaneously using set -- $ARGS. It is less general than the previous example but it is shorter and works just fine.

Works with: Bourne Shell
A='a1 a2 a3'
B='b1 b2 b3'

set -- $B
for a in $A
do
    printf "$a $1\n"
    shift
done
Output:
a1 b1
a2 b2
a3 b3


Some shells have real arrays, so the iteration is much more simple and easy.

Works with: bash
Works with: ksh93
a=(a b c)
b=(A B C)
c=(1 2 3)
for ((i = 0; i < ${#a[@]}; i++)); do
  echo "${a[$i]}${b[$i]}${c[$i]}"
done
Output:
aA1
bB2
cC3
Works with: ksh93
Works with: pdksh
set -A a a b c
set -A b A B C
set -A c 1 2 3
((i = 0))
while ((i < ${#a[@]})); do
  echo "${a[$i]}${b[$i]}${c[$i]}"
  ((i++))
done
Works with: zsh
a=(a b c)
b=(A B C)
c=(1 2 3)
for ((i = 1; i <= $#a; i++)); do
  echo "$a[$i]$b[$i]$c[$i]"
done

C Shell

Uses the length of array a. Longer arrays ignore their extra elements, but shorter arrays force the shell to exit with an error like b: Subscript out of range.

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:

> 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<i> b<i> c<i> 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

The program was only written to display the first 3 characters. If they were of different lengths, the wrong characters (or random bytes outside the program) would have been read, depending on which array "ran out" first. The three arrays defined with the db directive are stored sequentially.

foreach a,b,c in (["a".."c"].zip(T("A","B","C"),[1..])){ println(a,b,c) }

or

Utils.zipWith(False,fcn{vm.arglist.concat().println()},
   ["a".."c"],T("A","B","C"),[1..])
Output:
aA1
bB2
cC3

zip[With] stops at the end of the shortest sequence, which means it can work with infinite sequences

Limit by minimum length

Works with: 0.10.x

const std = @import("std");

const arr1 = [_]u8{ 'a', 'b', 'c' };
const arr2 = [_]u8{ 'A', 'B', 'C' };
const arr3 = [_]u8{ '1', '2', '3' };

pub fn main() std.fs.File.WriteError!void {
    const stdout = std.io.getStdOut();
    const stdout_w = stdout.writer();
    const n = std.math.min3(arr1.len, arr2.len, arr3.len);
    for (arr1[0..n]) |arr1_e, i| {
        try stdout_w.print("{c} {c} {c}\n", .{ arr1_e, arr2[i], arr3[i] });
    }

Limit by length of first array

Works with: 0.10.x

This example will print up-to arr1 length (asserts that other arrays are at least that long).

const std = @import("std");

const arr1 = [_]u8{ 'a', 'b', 'c' };
const arr2 = [_]u8{ 'A', 'B', 'C' };
const arr3 = [_]u8{ '1', '2', '3' };

pub fn main() std.fs.File.WriteError!void {
    const stdout = std.io.getStdOut();
    const stdout_w = stdout.writer();
    for (arr1) |arr1_e, i| {
        try stdout_w.print("{c} {c} {c}\n", .{ arr1_e, arr2[i], arr3[i] });
    }
}

Works with: 0.11.x, 0.12.0-dev.1381+61861ef39

const std = @import("std");

const arr1 = [_]u8{ 'a', 'b', 'c' };
const arr2 = [_]u8{ 'A', 'B', 'C' };
const arr3 = [_]u8{ '1', '2', '3' };

pub fn main() std.fs.File.WriteError!void {
    const stdout = std.io.getStdOut();
    const stdout_w = stdout.writer();
    for (arr1, 0..) |arr1_e, i| {
        try stdout_w.print("{c} {c} {c}\n", .{ arr1_e, arr2[i], arr3[i] });
    }
}

Assert that arrays have equal length

Works with: 0.11.x, 0.12.0-dev.1381+61861ef39

This example will print up-to arr1 length (asserts that other arrays are exactly that long => asserts that lengths are equal).

const std = @import("std");

const arr1 = [_]u8{ 'a', 'b', 'c' };
const arr2 = [_]u8{ 'A', 'B', 'C' };
const arr3 = [_]u8{ '1', '2', '3' };

pub fn main() std.fs.File.WriteError!void {
    const stdout = std.io.getStdOut();
    const stdout_w = stdout.writer();
    for (arr1, arr2, arr3) |arr1_e, arr2_e, arr3_e| {
        try stdout_w.print("{c} {c} {c}\n", .{ arr1_e, arr2_e, arr3_e });
    }
