While the copy'n'paste examples are novel and the map/foreach alternatives have also been mentioned, I think one approach that has not been discussed is recursion.

Since this is homework, I will leave the implementation to the poster.

Happy coding.

It's nice to see some even more innovative solutions! :-)
