APWJ Chapter 15 (Oh No Not Eigenvalues Again, as revised by Kip Murray) ends with the following paragraph...
"The verb cm is a model of the monad of the c. primitive described in the J Introduction and Dictionary 1996 Edition. It differs in that the roots are given in order of descending magnitude, which is how the polynomial (p.) primitive provides them, rather than the ascending order prescribed in the Dictionary. Since c. has not yet been implemented, it's anyone's guess how p. and c. will be reconciled. I've brought this matter to the attention of the proper authorities, so they do at least know that the problem exists." Since c. is now listed in the J Dictionary, the reader may ask: how *has* it been reconciled with p.? I'd like to insert a footnote to this effect in Edn 2 of APWJ.
