Dear Harvey, another impressive and kind opus!! The first part is great, the first and easier part sinks in, the latter parts get too technical for now.
then again, once you start talking verbs and nouns and all that other language grammar stuff, and monads and dyads i start thinking of the triads. sorry someone mentioned exe recently too as well as ijs and ijx. Yes, it is nice to have a clean ijs sheet with successful programs and comments. (philosophically J just seems to be bucking the trend towards easier and easier communication a la wolfram | alpha, and the 10 odd year old trend towards cas, and the easy play of i pad apps, as well as my decades old mentors' to go with high powered easy to communicate with high level languages where it is easy to determine what is going on). (My comment: the BASIC of 1982 is easy, and the hope was that it would have gotten easier and yet more powerful and faster with still more functions, color, and a big display.) No question, j is intriguing, as are all you j ers. Once again, very many kind thanks D ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
