Matrix argument get big and you need to start thinking about your display
media.
That said, here's a starting example:
(('',&<]),:,.@[,&<+&.>/)~ 2 2 <@$"1 #:i.16
Note that I have explicitly chosen an "easy case" which makes a variety of
issues vanish. That's pretty much what computer systems design is about, I
sometimes think. You have to choose your "battles" carefully.
In this particular case:
(1) All argument and result boxes are the same size.
(2) There's nothing in the top left corner.
Both of these choices simplify the formating problem (which, in the general
case, is boundlessly complex - which perhaps has something to do with why
tools like Excel corrupt your data when you give them too much of it and
freeze the system when run for too long.)
Thanks,
