Dec 31, 2013 at 19:12 comment added Daniel Lichtblau Regarding understanding of those one-liners, I'm fairly certain nobody really knows why they do what they do, not even their authors. It's probably a matter of playing with /@ vs @@ vs @@@, Through/Thread/Map/MapThread, Fold/Nest, then maybe Flatten to taste. That at least is my opinion. I've never in my life come close to writing an actual competitive Mathematica one-liner, so my view could be jaundiced..

Dec 22, 2013 at 23:29 comment added Jacob Akkerboom There is something in this question. I once again realise I think a good voting system on this site is very important. level == reputation, or level == reputation/numberOfAnswers can sound appealing. I imagine improvements to the voting system should be possible.
Dec 22, 2013 at 18:44 comment added Mr.Wizard This question is pretty clearly out of scope by way of being open ended. Nevertheless I find it an interesting question so for the time being I shall leave it open. I have converted it to a "community wiki" which has been serving as a de facto "gray area" for such topics.

Dec 22, 2013 at 8:12 comment added cormullion So you're looking for non-scientific examples of the use of Mathematica in people's "daily life"? There are plenty of examples on this and other sites. But I don't see where your "expert levels" and code brevity concerns come in to the question...?

Dec 22, 2013 at 2:37 comment added Oleksandr R. Personally, I think this is a good question, especially as it's more likely to arise in the future from newcomers to the "Wolfram Language". However, be warned that questions without any objectively correct answer are generally frowned upon in the StackExchange format.
