Non-continuous subsequences
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Consider some sequence of elements. (It differs from a mere set of elements by having an ordering among members.)
A subsequence contains some subset of the elements of this sequence, in the same order.
A continuous subsequence is one in which no elements are missing between the first and last elements of the subsequence.
Note: Subsequences are defined structurally, not by their contents. So a sequence a,b,c,d will always have the same subsequences and continuous subsequences, no matter which values are substituted; it may even be the same value.
Task: Find all non-continuous subsequences for a given sequence. Example: For the sequence 1,2,3,4, there are five non-continuous subsequences, namely 1,3; 1,4; 2,4; 1,3,4 and 1,2,4.
Goal: There are different ways to calculate those subsequences. Demonstrate algorithm(s) that are natural for the language.

<lang lisp> (use '[clojure.contrib.combinatorics :only (subsets)])
(defn of-min-length [min-length]
(fn [s] (>= (count s) min-length)))
(defn runs [c l]
(map (partial take l) (take-while not-empty (iterate rest c))))
(defn is-subseq? [c sub]
(some identity (map = (runs c (count sub)) (repeat sub))))
(defn non-continuous-subsequences [s]
(filter (complement (partial is-subseq? s)) (subsets s)))
(filter (of-min-length 2) (non-continuous-subsequences [:a :b :c :d]))

Erlang
Erlang's not optimized for strings or math, so this is pretty inefficient. Nonetheless, it works by generating the set of all possible "bitmasks" (represented as strings), filters for those with non-continuous subsequences, and maps from that set over the list. One immediate point for optimization that would complicate the code a bit would be to compile the regular expression, the problem being where you'd put it.

Go
Generate the power set (power sequence, actually) with a recursive function, but keep track of the state of the subsequence on the way down. When you get to the bottom, if state == non-continuous, then include the subsequence. It's just filtering merged in with generation. <lang go>package main
import "fmt"
const ( // state:
m = iota // missing: all elements missing so far c // continuous: all elements included so far are continuous cm // one or more continuous followed by one or more missing cmc // non-continuous subsequence

A disjointed subsequence is a consecutive subsequence followed by a gap, then by any nonempty subsequence to its right: <lang haskell>import Data.List (subsequences, tails, delete)
disjoint a = concatMap (cutAt a) [1..length a - 2] where cutAt s n = [a ++ b | b <- delete [] (subsequences right), a <- init (tails left) ] where (left, _:right) = splitAt n s
main = print $ length $ disjoint [1..20]</lang>
Build a lexicographic list of consecutive subsequences, and a list of all subsequences, then subtract one from the other: <lang haskell>import Data.List (inits, tails)
subseqs = foldr (\x s -> [x] : map (x:) s ++ s) []
consecs = concatMap (tail.inits) . tails
minus [] [] = [] minus (a:as) bb@(b:bs) | a == b = minus as bs | otherwise = a:minus as bb
disjoint s = (subseqs s) `minus` (consecs s)
main = mapM_ print $ disjoint [1..4]</lang>
J
We select those combinations where the end of the first continuous subsequence appears before the start of the last continuous subsequence:
<lang J>allmasks=: 2 #:@i.@^ # firstend=:1 0 i.&1@E."1 ] laststart=: 0 1 {:@I.@E."1 ] noncont=: <@#~ (#~ firstend < laststart)@allmasks</lang>
Example use: <lang J> noncont 1+i.4 ┌───┬───┬───┬─────┬─────┐ │2 4│1 4│1 3│1 3 4│1 2 4│ └───┴───┴───┴─────┴─────┘
noncont 'aeiou'

#noncont i.10

Alternatively, since there are relatively few continuous sequences, we could specifically exclude them:
<lang J>contmasks=: a: ;@, 1 <:/~@i.&.>@i.@+ # noncont=: <@#~ (allmasks -. contmasks)</lang>
(we get the same behavior from this implementation)

jq
In order to handle arrays of more than a handful of elements, we define non_continuous_subsequences/0 as a generator; that is, it produces a stream of arrays, each of which is a non-continuous subsequence of the given sequence.
Since the non-continuous subsequences are dense in the set of all subsets, we will use the powerset approach, and accordingly begin by defining subsets/0 as a generator. <lang jq># Generate a stream of subsets of the input array def subsets:
if length == 0 then [] else .[0] as $first | (.[1:] | subsets) | ., ([$first] + .) end ;
- Generate a stream of non-continuous indices in the range 0 <= i < .
def non_continuous_indices:
[range(0;.)] | subsets | select(length > 1 and length != 1 + .[length-1] - .[0]) ;
def non_continuous_subsequences:
(length | non_continuous_indices) as $ix | [.[ $ix[] ]] ;</lang>
Example: To show that the above approach can be used for relatively large n, let us count the number of non-continuous subsequences of [0, 1, ..., 19]. <lang jq>def count(f): reduce f as $i (0; . + 1);
count( [range(0;20)] | non_continuous_subsequences) </lang>

Julia
This solution uses an iterator over non-contiguous sub-sequences, NCSubSeq. In the spirit of Julia's permutations and combinations built-ins, NCSubSeq provides an array of indices that can be used to create each subsequence from the full sequence. Sub-sequences are indexed by integers whose bit patterns indicate which members are included.
NCSubSeq works by filtering indices according to whether all 1s in these indices have bit pattern that are contiguous (using the iscontseq functions). This is an easy to implement approach. Greater efficiency might be achieved by exploiting the property that a sequence is contiguous if and only if its index is a difference of two powers of 2. This property is used to create the length(NCSubSeq(n)) function, which gives the number of non-contiguous sub-sequences of a sequence of length n.
NCSubSeq works transparently for sequence lengths up to WORD_SIZE-1 (typically 63). It can be extended to work for longer sequences by casting n to a larger integer, e.g. using Big(n). A more polished implementation would handle this extension behind the scenes.

Prolog
Works with SWI-Prolog.
We explain to Prolog how to build a non continuous subsequence of a list L, then we ask Prolog to fetch all the subsequences.
<lang Prolog> % fetch all the subsequences ncsubs(L, LNCSL) :- setof(NCSL, one_ncsubs(L, NCSL), LNCSL).
% how to build one subsequence one_ncsubs(L, NCSL) :- extract_elem(L, NCSL); ( sublist(L, L1), one_ncsubs(L1, NCSL)).
% extract one element of the list % this element is neither the first nor the last. extract_elem(L, NCSL) :- length(L, Len), Len1 is Len - 2, between(1, Len1, I), nth0(I, L, Elem), select(Elem, L, NCS1), ( NCSL = NCS1; extract_elem(NCS1, NCSL)).
% extract the first or the last element of the list sublist(L, SL) :- (L = [_|SL]; reverse(L, [_|SL1]), reverse(SL1, SL)). </lang> Example : <lang Prolog>?- ncsubs([a,e,i,o,u], L). L = [[a,e,i,u],[a,e,o],[a,e,o,u],[a,e,u],[a,i],[a,i,o],[a,i,o,u],[a,i,u],[a,o],[a,o,u],[a,u],[e,i,u],[e,o],[e,o,u],[e,u],[i,u]]</lang>

The idea behind this is to loop over the possible lengths of subsequence, finding all subsequences then discarding those which are continuous.
<lang r>ncsub <- function(x) {
n <- length(x)
a <- seq_len(n)
seqlist <- list()
for(i in 2:(n-1))
{
seqs <- combn(a, i) # Get all subseqs
ok <- apply(seqs, 2, function(x) any(diff(x)!=1)) # Find noncts ones
newseqs <- unlist(apply(seqs[,ok], 2, function(x) list(x)), recursive=FALSE) # Convert matrix to list of its columns
seqlist <- c(seqlist, newseqs) # Append to existing list
}
lapply(seqlist, function(index) x[index])

Racket
Take a simple subsets definition: <lang racket> (define (subsets l)
(if (null? l) '(())
(append (for/list ([l2 (subsets (cdr l))]) (cons (car l) l2))
(subsets (cdr l)))))
</lang> since the subsets are returned in their original order, it is also a sub-sequences function.
Now add to it a "state" counter which count one for each chunk of items included or excluded. It's always even when we're in an excluded chunk (including the beginning) and odd when we're including items -- increment it whenever we switch from one kind of chunk to the other. This means that we should only include subsequences where the state is 3 (included->excluded->included) or more. Note that this results in code that is similar to the "Generalized monadic filter" entry, except a little simpler.

Tcl
This Tcl implementation uses the subsets function from Power Set, which is acceptable as that conserves the ordering, as well as a problem-specific test function is_not_continuous and a generic list filter lfilter:
<lang Tcl> proc subsets l {
set res [list [list]]
foreach e $l {
foreach subset $res {lappend res [lappend subset $e]}
}
return $res
}
proc is_not_continuous seq {
set last [lindex $seq 0]
foreach e [lrange $seq 1 end] {
if {$e-1 != $last} {return 1}
set last $e
}
return 0
}
proc lfilter {f list} {
set res {}
foreach i $list {if [$f $i] {lappend res $i}}
return $res
}
% lfilter is_not_continuous [subsets {1 2 3 4}] {1 3} {1 4} {2 4} {1 2 4} {1 3 4}</lang>
Ursala
To do it the lazy programmer way, apply the powerset library function to the list, which will generate all continuous and non-continuous subsequences of it, and then delete the subsequences that are also substrings (hence continuous) using a judicious combination of the built in substring predicate (K3), negation (Z), and distributing filter (K17) operator suffixes. This function will work on lists of any type. To meet the requirement for structural equivalence, the list items are first uniquely numbered (num), and the numbers are removed afterwards (rSS).
