However, one frustration I still have is regarding explicit definitions.
IMO they should be replaced with something more like what the K language
provides, namely first-class, lexically-scoped functions:
This is a nice thing in Dyalog as well, and it has the same syntax there,
except alpha for x and omega for y. My experience from other systems makes me
feel that code in strings is icky, and it doesn’t syntax-highlight well either.
On the other hand, I am still new—is it common to pass around strings bearing
code? This is common in Tcl, where there are several ways of quoting. I don’t
see an obvious way to make a gerund from a single verb—is that ever done, and
are strings the secret to it?
