Welcome fellow coders, now I would like to give you second code challenge, this time I am keeping it simple as possible but tricky enough to be a little challenging for everyone. Challenge Description: Write a function or program that takes in a list of integers and returns the second smallest element in the list. However, there's a twist: you're not allowed to use any loops or recursion directly in your code. For example: Input: [5, 2, 8, 3, 1] Output: 2 Input: [9, 5, 7, 3, 7, 2] Output: 3 Your solution should not use any form of iteration (e.g., for loops, while loops, list comprehensions) or recursion. Instead, you can only use built-in functions and methods available in your chosen programming language. Challenge Guidelines: While creating the solution, participants are free to select whatever programming language, frameworks, and tools they like. In order to present their ideas, participants may choose to upload code repositories (like GitHub), live demos, or images or vid...
