That's a bug - with no x or y you should get a monad.  I think I have fixed it already for the next beta - please check when it comes out.

You're right. I messed up again. Needed a y in the definition.

Sorry about that.

In your example, if you display test you will see that it has been defined
as a conjunction. Which is probably not what you intended.

Try the following where you explicityy ask {{ to create a verb.
t
    test=: {{)v
xxx=:'asdf'
xxx
}}
    test
3 : 0
  xxx =: 'asdf'
  xxx
)
    test''
asdf

I was sloppy and didn't notice the left argument. Sorry about that. I am
still getting used to the notation. Looks like the problem had nothing to
do with my error. Here is a problem where defining test using DD and a
literal string is used.

NB. This is the script I ran.
erase 'test'

test=:{{
xxx=.'outer'
xxx
}}

NB. This is what I got when I ran it.

erase 'test'

1

test=:{{

xxx=.'outer'

xxx

}}

|domain error

| test=:(9 :'

xxx =. ''outer''

xxx

')

|[-5]


NB. When I tried to use the script. I know, not necessary as it already
failed.

test 'abc'

|value error: test

| test'abc'

test

|value error: test
