It seems to me that using an example (-&-@- – ]) that would not be
used by most J programmers is the strawman. I think your argument is
much stronger if you can come up with verbs that cannot be expressed
in equivalents that are clearer and quicker.
I don't understand this statement.
The important point in this seems to be how most J programmers would
write a sequence of 4 monadic verbs and the rationality they have for
writing like that. I think they would write something like this,
(-&-@- – ]) , but I might be wrong.
