If your view of adverbs shifts with improved understanding of these, I'll be eager to hear your revised summary.
This is not to imply that you don't know those operators well. I have no idea how well you understand them. I'n my experience, they're touchstones for my understanding of operators. I often still need to study them when I use them, but I'm getting better at knowing when they apply and the study seems shorter each time. -- Tracy ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
