Thank you. Confirmed working with the original test cases.
Pushing a bit further, I believe that the following behavior may still
be contrary to the IBM spec in SVN 268:
+¨''
┌⊖┐
│0│
└─┘
Here we have a numeric function passed an empty character. Transforming
this via the identity given previously, we get the equivalent
expression:
(⍴'')⍴⊂+↑''
DOMAIN ERROR
(⍴'')⍴⊂+↑''
^^
(I don't know whether there's a corresponding case for ⍬. Is there a
primitive monadic function that only accepts character arguments?)
