May this challenge serve as (another) tribute to Stan Lee, who passed away aged 95.



Stan Lee has left us an invaluable legacy and a peculiar catch word: Excelsior. So here's a small challenge based on what he said it was its meaning:




Finally, what does “Excelsior” mean? “Upward and onward to greater glory!” That’s what I wish you whenever I finish tweeting! Excelsior!




Challenge



Given a series of non-negative integers, output a line with Excelsior! every time an integer is greater than the previous one.



Rules




  • Input will be an array of non-negative integers.

  • Output will consist of lines with the word Excelsior (case does matter) followed by as many ! as the length of the current run of increasingly greater numbers. You can also return an array of strings.

  • Input and output formats are flexible according to the site rules, so feel free to adapt them to your language formats. You can also add spaces at the end of the lines, or even extra new lines after or before the text if you need.


Examples



Input             Output
-----------------------------------
[3,2,1,0,5] Excelsior! // Excelsior because 5 > 0

[1,2,3,4,5] Excelsior! // Excelsior because 2 > 1
Excelsior!! // Excelsior because 3 > 2 (run length: 2)
Excelsior!!! // Excelsior because 4 > 3 (run length: 3)
Excelsior!!!! // Excelsior because 5 > 4 (run length: 4)

<Nothing>

[42] <Nothing>

[1,2,1,3,4,1,5] Excelsior! // Excelsior because 2 > 1
Excelsior! // Excelsior because 3 > 1
Excelsior!! // Excelsior because 4 > 3 (run length: 2)
Excelsior! // Excelsior because 5 > 1

[3,3,3,3,4,3] Excelsior! // Excelsior because 4 > 3


This is code-golf, so may the shortest code for each language win!

JavaScript (ES6), 58 54 bytes





a=>a.map(c=>a<(a=c)?`Excelsior${s+='!'}
`:s='').join``


Try it online!



Commented



a =>                           // a = input array, also used to store the previous value
a.map(c => // for each value c in a:
a < // compare the previous value
(a = c) // with the current one; update a to c
// this test is always falsy on the 1st iteration
? // if a is less than c:
`Excelsior${s += '!'}n` // add a '!' to s and yield 'Excelsior' + s + linefeed
: // else:
s = '' // reset s to an empty string and yield an empty string
).join`` // end of map(); join everything


Why re-using a[ ] to store the previous value is safe



There are three possible cases:




  • If $a[text{ }]$ is empty, the callback function of .map() is not invoked at all and we just get an empty array, yielding an empty string.

  • If $a[text{ }]$ contains exactly one element $x$, it is coerced to that element during the first (and unique) test a < (a = c). So, we're testing $x < x$, which is falsy. We get an array containing an empty string, yielding again an empty string.

  • If $a[text{ }]$ contains several elements, it is coerced to NaN during the first test a < (a = c). Therefore, the result is falsy and what's executed is the initialization of $s$ to an empty string -- which is what we want. The first meaningful comparison occurs at the 2nd iteration.

    Explanation:

    ‹ # And check for each pair [a,b] if a<b is truthy

    # → [1,0,1,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1]
    γ # Split it into chunks of equal elements
    # i.e. [1,0,1,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1]
    # → [[1],[0],[1,1],[0],[1,1,1,1],[0],[1]]
    vy # Foreach `y` over them
    O # Take the sum of that inner list
    # i.e. [1,1,1,1] → 4
    # i.e. [0] → 0
    E # Inner loop `N` in the range [1, length]:
    .•1Š¥èò²• # Push string "excelsior"
    ™ # Titlecase it: "Excelsior"
    N'!׫ '# Append `N` amount of "!"
    # i.e. N=3 → "Excelsior!!!"
    , # Output with a trailing newline


    See this 05AB1E tip of mine (section How to compress strings not part of the dictionary?) to understand why .•1Š¥èò²• is "excelsior".

              <Ɲṣ0ÄẎ”!ẋ“Ø6ḥ»;Ɱ


              A monadic Link yielding a list of lists of characters.



              Try it online! (footer joins with newlines)



              How?



              <Ɲṣ0ÄẎ”!ẋ“Ø6ḥ»;Ɱ - Link: list of integers     e.g. [1,1,4,2,1,1,3,4]

              < - less than? [ 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1]
              ṣ0 - split at zeros [, [1], , , [1, 1]]
              Ä - cumulative sums [, [1], , , [1, 2]]
              Ẏ - tighten [1,1,2]
              ”! - literal '!' character '!'

                    Convert to unary.

                    Process overlapping matches from right to left (although the matches are then listed from left to right). This means that we can match every number in a run, and the match extends to the start of the run. Each match is further constrained that each additional matched number must be less than the previously matched additional number, or the first number if no additional numbers have been matched yet.



                    L$...
                    Excelsior$#1*!


                    For each match, output Excelsior with the number of additional numbers in the run as desired.

                            Sorry but you need to print the exclamation mark according to the rules (one exclamation mark per length of the current run of increasingly greater numbers).

                            I don't know Lua too well, but here is a fix for your code so it runs all test cases correctly Currently you just print an "!" more every time a number is higher than the previous, but you don't reset it back to 1 when that isn't the case. More can probably be golfed, but since I've never golfed in Lua I focused on fixing it with only minor golfs. PS: Not sure if assuming the input are always single digits is correct..

                            Since @Charlie mentioned in a comment below the challenge description that it should be possible to take multi-digits numbers as input, here a possible fix by taking a space-delimited input and split on it.

                                    Why re-using a[ ] to store the previous value is safe



                                    There are three possible cases:




                                    • If $a[text{ }]$ is empty, the callback function of .map() is not invoked at all and we just get an empty array, yielding an empty string.

                                    • If $a[text{ }]$ contains exactly one element $x$, it is coerced to that element during the first (and unique) test a < (a = c). So, we're testing $x < x$, which is falsy. We get an array containing an empty string, yielding again an empty string.

                                    • If $a[text{ }]$ contains several elements, it is coerced to NaN during the first test a < (a = c). Therefore, the result is falsy and what's executed is the initialization of $s$ to an empty string -- which is what we want. The first meaningful comparison occurs at the 2nd iteration.

                                        Why re-using a[ ] to store the previous value is safe



                                        There are three possible cases:




                                        • If $a[text{ }]$ is empty, the callback function of .map() is not invoked at all and we just get an empty array, yielding an empty string.

                                        • If $a[text{ }]$ contains exactly one element $x$, it is coerced to that element during the first (and unique) test a < (a = c). So, we're testing $x < x$, which is falsy. We get an array containing an empty string, yielding again an empty string.

                                        • If $a[text{ }]$ contains several elements, it is coerced to NaN during the first test a < (a = c). Therefore, the result is falsy and what's executed is the initialization of $s$ to an empty string -- which is what we want. The first meaningful comparison occurs at the 2nd iteration.

This means that we can match every number in a run, and the match extends to the start of the run. Each match is further constrained that each additional matched number must be less than the previously matched additional number, or the first number if no additional numbers have been matched yet.

More can probably be golfed, but since I've never golfed in Lua I focused on fixing it with only minor golfs. PS: Not sure if assuming the input are always single digits is correct..
