Hi Raul,
You said:
"Second, in J, forks (and all verbs regardless of whether or not
they were verb phrases), left arguments are sought without the
use of [. For example:
2 (+ % ]) 3
1.66667"
I agree
You said:
The beauty of [ and ] is that they are verbs, and their
grammar matches the grammar of all other verbs. Their
usefulness, as verbs, is rather analogous to the usefulness
of zero in the context of numbers -- they can occupy a place
in a structure which lets you see that structure without
having to make up special rules to deal with the trivial
cases.
I agree
Don
