OK - home again and "solved" this difficulty with extended. Well,
chased it away -
I've no idea _why_ the error arose.
So - in the absence of advice to the contrary, I ran the prescribed
update method,
ie
load'pacman'
'upgrade' jpkg 'jengine'
This method had failed when I first ran it to update to beta-i , the
failure manifesting
itself as an error reported when starting up J902 from its Windows
shortcut. That was
why I had downloaded the zip file and overwritten my J902 folders with
its contents.
However, running the update in the approved manner worked today. The
Windows
JQt shortcut fires up the session without crashing.
Now, I find
1%4x NB. was 0, yesterday !
1r4
1x%4x NB. " " "
1r4
as expected.
Perhaps my attempt on 20/10/20 to overwrite the beta-h installation with
files and folders
from the zip-file went wrong somewhere...
Sorry to have raised this hare, but it was a real anomaly yesterday!

Bob & Joey’s results are encouraging. I wonder if my problem with 1%2x giving
0 in J902 is something to do with my installation problem for beta-i in Windows
which I reported a week or so ago. After the usual pacman update route had
resulted in a defective j.dll (I think), I downloaded the zip file and overwrote
the j902 install folders.
When I get home tomorrow, some time after noon GMT, with better WiFi and email
ability, I’ll try reinstalling unless, in the meantime, anyone else reports the
same problem, or advises me not to.
Thanks,

From the iPad again, it comes down to
1 % 2x
1r2 NB. In J901, 8, 7 etc
0 NB. in J902
So does extended%extended give rational or not?

This is the sort of thing I see here on the iPad, and also in J901
However, in J902 beta i, I get (can’t email from Windows just now, so faking

My mistake!?

Modern J uses a virtual block for the result of (, y), so now (+/@, y) and (+/
, y) run at the same speed. A different example is needed.

Jan-Pieter,
First, thanks for pointing out the link.
But I am having some problems.
[*******my comment 0) here is likely inappropriate in light of Henry's
reply in this thread
0) Are you suggesting that some wording be added to that link? It looks to
me as if you are but where?
I say where because there are at least 3 different concepts treated on that
page: SC, EIP, and AIP.
]
1) I am finding problems on that page that I cannot explain. For example,
a) on one line discussing EIP the following is stated twice, when it is
clear that the two should be different `(V0@[ V1 V2)` .
b) [this comment may also be explained by Henry's reply but I don't see how]
I cannot confirm the improvements suggested by the example there.
Perhaps using j807 is the problem. See my session below.

a =: 1000 1000 ?@$ 0 NB. it is unfortunate that the +/ result
suggests that a contains integers, not reals
+/ , a NB. perhaps 1000 1000

I guess this is worth mentioning here:
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Vocabulary/SpecialCombinations#Assignments_In_Place_.28AIP.29
Assignments are done in place if you use a specific form recognised by the
interpreter.
If you do not assign the result, or use it in a longer sentence, it will
not be recognised, copying over the entire array, rather than updating a
single element.
Best regards,
