Bom verbo lá, no título.

Escreva um programa que, com uma string de entrada, "elize" essa string e produza o resultado. A elasticidade de uma sequência é feita da seguinte maneira:

O primeiro caractere é mostrado uma vez. O segundo caractere é mostrado duas vezes. O terceiro caractere é mostrado três vezes, e assim por diante.

Como você pode ver, a quantidade de duplicações de um determinado caractere está relacionada ao índice do personagem, em oposição às ocorrências anteriores na string.

Você pode esperar receber apenas caracteres ASCII imprimíveis. Com base no link a seguir , esses caracteres têm valores decimais 32-126.

Exemplos:

Why: Whhyyy

SKype: SKKyyyppppeeeee

LobbY: LoobbbbbbbYYYYY (Observe como existem 7 b's desde que o primeiro b é mostrado 3 vezes e o segundo b é mostrado 4 vezes, perfazendo um total de 7 b).

A and B: A aaannnnddddd BBBBBBB

Whhyyy
   f 'SKype'
SKKyyyppppeeeee
   f 'LobbY'
LoobbbbbbbYYYYY
   f 'A and B'
A  aaannnnddddd      BBBBBBB

Explicação

#~#\  Input: s
  #\  Computes the length of each prefix of s
      This forms the range [1, 2, ..., len(s)]
#~    For each value in the range, copy the character at the
      corresponding index that many times
      Return the created string

Explanation

Using the LobbY example:

                                      Stack:
S    e# Push space.                   [" "]
l    e# Read input.                   [" " "LobbY"]
+    e# Append.                       [" LobbY"]
ee   e# Enumerate.                    [[[0 ' ] [1 'L] [2 'o] [3 'b] [4 'b] [5 'Y]]]
e~   e# Run-length decode.            ["LoobbbbbbbYYYYY"]

g=@(m)sort(m(m>0));@(s)s(g(hankel(1:nnz(s))))

Explanation: The key is hankel, which produces a Hankel matrix of a given vector. From this matrix, we can extract a vector of indices, which defines which character of the string is at which position in the output. E.g. hankel(1:4) produces following matrix:

 1  2  3  4
 2  3  4  0
 3  4  0  0
 4  0  0  0

From this matrix we can extrac the vector 1,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,4. This vector allows us to output the first character of the string once, the second one twice e.t.c.

PowerShell v2+, 36 bytes

-join([char[]]$args[0]|%{"$_"*++$i})

Takes input $args[0], explicitly casts it as a char array, sends that into a loop |%{...}. Each iteration we take the current letter/character "$_" and use the * overloaded operator to concatenate the string pre-incremented $i times. The result of each loop iteration is encapsulated in parens to form an array and then -joined together to form a string. That string is left on the pipeline and output is implicit.

:ImC,0:Ie,Cw\

This prints the result to STDOUT.

Explanation

This is a good example of exploiting backtracking to loop.

:ImC            C is the Ith character of the Input
    ,
     0:Ie       Unify an implicit variable with an integer between 0 and I
         ,
          Cw    Write C to STDOUT
            \   False, trigger backtracking. It will go back to 0:Ie and unify the implicit
                variable with another integer, until all integers were used. After that, it
                will backtrack to :ImC and unify I and C with the next character.

Basically, we insert the right amount of · as placeholders between the characters (since these extended ASCII characters can't appear in the input), then fill them up with the adjacent character in the second stage.

lambda s:''.join(c*-~i for i,c in enumerate(s))

This is mostly self-explanatory. One thing for those not versed in Python: The * operator is overloaded to act like Perl's x operator, repeating its string argument the number of times specified by its numeric argument. E.g. 'foo' * 3 == 'foofoofoo'
