> Implement the elt function to extract the n-th input value from a list of inputs.
> Description:
> The elt function in the ETL pipeline extracts the value at the n-th position from a list of input values. It is similar to array indexing, where the first element is at position 1. This function provides a convenient way to retrieve specific elements from a list of inputs.
> Syntax:
>  
> {code:java}
> elt[n: int, *inputs: str] -> str or None{code}
>  
> Arguments:
> n: The index of the input value to extract. It should be a positive integer.
> *inputs: Variable-length arguments representing the list of inputs.
> Returns:
> The value at the n-th position in the list of inputs. If the index exceeds the length of the array, the function returns NULL. 
> Examples:
> Retrieving the second element from a list of strings:
> {code:java}
> elt(2, 'scala', 'java')
> Output: 'java'{code}
> Retrieving the second element from a list of mixed types:
> {code:java}
> result = elt(2, 'a', 1)
> Output: 1{code}
