The explanation says: If pattern is an array and replacement is a string; then this replacement
string is used for every value of pattern. The converse would not make sense, though.
I wonder why the converse is not valid. I wish to replace every nth occurance of one pattern with
the nth value of an array. Why shouln't this be possible with this function?
