Not much, if you restrict yourself to the built-ins, but you can
define your own words that operate on non-scalar values.  A few
cases already "in the box" include

    >> blk: [2 4 6 8 9 7 5 3 1]
    == [2 4 6 8 9 7 5 3 1]
    >> print blk
    2 4 6 8 9 7 5 3 1
    >> minimum-of blk
    == [1]
    >> maximum-of blk
    == [9 7 5 3 1]

but, at the risk of repetition, you can define more.
