Sum the array times n, except the last

Code Golf Asked on October 27, 2021

I’ve been posting relatively hard challenges recently, so here goes an easy one.

Task

Given an array $A$ and a number $n$, calculate the sum of all numbers of $A$ multiplied by $n$, except the last one. All numbers (the elements of $A$ and the value of $n$) are positive integers, and $A$ is non-empty. Shortest code in bytes wins.

I have a 3-byte J solution. Can you find it (or beat it in a different language)?

Test cases

A           N   Ans   Explanation
3 1 4 1 5   10  95    (3+1+4+1)*10+5
3 1 4 1 5   1   14    (3+1+4+1)*1+5
1           999 1     1

TI-BASIC, 30 bytes (on-calc) / 37 bytes (as text)

Assumes list variable L₁ contains the array and variable N contains n.

dim(L₁
Nsum(L₁,1,Ans-1)+L₁(Ans

Explanation

  • dim(L₁: Get the size of L₁, to be used in the next line as Ans.
  • Nsum(L₁,1,Ans-1)+L₁(Ans: The sum( function has optional arguments to specify the beginning and end of a region of the list to be summed. The sum is implicitly multiplied by N, then added to the last element of the list, and implicitly printed.

Closing parentheses can be left out at the end of lines in TI-BASIC.

Takes input through command arguments, with n as the first argument. This basically implements the algorithm:

i = 2
x = 0
o = 0
while args[i]:
  o += x*args[1]
  x = args[i]
  i += 1

print(o + x)

But with more nesting and some shortcuts, like using the variable 2.

Reverse the vector, and perform dot product with the vector $(n^0, n^1, n^1, ldots,n^1) = (1, n, n,ldots, n)$.

I just discovered this behaviour of seq, which gains 1 byte on item 4 of this tip: seq(!l) is equivalent to seq(along.with = l) (giving the vector 1 2 3 ... length(l)) in all situations, even if l is of length 1. That is because !l is a logical, not an integer, and so we avoid the call to seq.int when l is a (length 1) integer.

Mostly due to limitations in my language...

{@eachargv.0}{@ifloop.last is equal0}{@set*_ _,argv.1}{@/}{@incby_ R}{@/}{@echoR}

Takes a string of numbers or an array as the first argument, and the n as the 2nd argument.

You can try this on http://sandbox.onlinephpfunctions.com/code/4c7290781560c876ff1e72e5d1680ed7b98861a3


Ungolfed:

The code above is a little weird to read...

Here's a more readable version:

{@set result 0}
{@each argv.0 as number}
    {@if loop.last is equal to false}
        {@set* number number, argv.1}
    {@/}
    {@inc by number result}
{@/}
{@echo result}

Notes:

  • {@set result 0} is optional, as {@inc} will create the variable, if it doesn't exist
  • {@each argv.0 as number} doesn't need need the as number, defaulting to the variable _ to store values
  • {@if loop.last is equal to false} uses the special variable loop to know if it is the last item in the {@each} Also, false is the same as 0.
  • {@set* number number, argv.1} multiplies number with argv.1 and stores it inside number. If number was an array, it would multiply with all the values.
  • {@inc by number result} will increment the variable result by number (effectivelly, result = result + number)
  • {@/} is usually optional, but, with this code, they are all required.

A longer but more interesting one. A tacit dyadic function that takes $A$ on its left and $n$ on the right.

Uses mixed base conversion , which does the following:

Digit value: n  n  n  ... n    1
Array value: 0  a1 a2 ... ax-1 ax
Total: a1n + a2n + ... + ax-1n + ax

1¨        ⍝ An array of ones as long as A
  ⍛,      ⍝ Append n, which becomes the base

C3          RET                 ; return to caller

As a callable function: [SI] to input array, CX array length, DX = N. Output to AX.

Rather than make an elaborate test program, here's it being run using DOS DEBUG, entering the input array into memory and setting registers as they would be called:

enter image description here

Explanation of above:

Enter input array into memory address DS:200 as 16-bit, little-endian words:

-e 200 3 0 1 0 4 0 1 0 5 0

Point SI to this input array:

-r SI
:200

Set CX to array's length:

-r CX
:5

Set N to 10 (0xA in hex):

-r DX
:A

Execute and stop before last instruction (RET will "return to DOS" and clobber registers):

-g 111

Result is AX=005F or 95 in decimal.

Takes the list as arguments and N on stdin. Inspired by the JS answer. Prefix each element with *n+ and $[evaluate arithmetically]. We have to add a 0 to the start as well. This is one byte shorter than using the join flag <<<$[${(j:*n+:)@}]

Alternate solution using the -P flag, which enables RC_EXPAND_PARAM to do the same thing.

#//.a_@b_:>a#2+b&

Try it online!

Takes a singly linked list as input: if X is a value and L is a list, X is the single-element list with element X, and X[L] is the list with element X, followed by the elements of L. For example, 3@1@4@1@5=3[1[4[1[5]]]] is the list with 3, 1, 4, 1, 5.

Per this discussion, we can take the first element with Head, and the tail with Last.

Try it online! Link is to verbose version of code. Presumably Charcoal has the same problem as IO when it comes to summing empty lists. Edit: saved 1 byte by converting from base 1 instead. Explanation:

J, 3 bytes

That was fun to find.

&+/

Try it online!

How it works

10 (&+/) 3 1 4 1 5 will bind 10 as an argument of + as 10&+, one verb that gets inserted between the elements of the list by /. So we have: 3 (10&+) 1 (10&+) 4 (10&+) 1 (10&+) 5. Now x n&v y means that y gets applied to n&v for x times. With J's right to left evaluation we get: to 5 add 1 times 10, add 4 times 10, add 1 times 10, add 3 times 10. A challenge made for J's stranger parts. :-) And because + is commutative, +&/ would also be a valid solution.

foldr1.((+).).(*)

Try it online!

It turns out this this was close to a port of the intended J solution. The pointfree function ((+).).(*) takes the argument n to the map a b->a*n+b, that is, to add n times the left value to the right value. This creates the same "verb" as J used, and the foldr1 does the same a J's automatic right to left evaluation. It starts with the rightmost value in the list, which never gets multiplied by n, and applies it right-to-left, effectively increasing the sum so far with n times to the new element.

How?

We simply join the input array with "*n+", so that [1,2,3] is turned into "1*n+2*n+3" and evaluate the resulting string.
