APLcart is a searchable idiom collection database — snippets of code that you can search for with a “how do I achieve X” type question. I’ve not seen this for languages outside the Iverson family, but it could be equally useful for other languages, too. Note that it’s accessible from within Dyalog apl as a user command: ]aplcart

Iversonian languages seem to be relatively unique in their rejection of defined functions in favor of composition of language primitives, so it seems that libraries are reached for before idiomatic expressions in other langs. It seems like an algorithm dictionary in plaintext or pseudocode would be a great boon for all.
