Thanks, I m trying to experiment with these boxes which were not in the flavours of APL 30 years ago. I know when they came along they made a lot of the things I did to handle data much easier. If I can just find some of my old APL programs I can try to re-express something in J.

my phrase  was meant to say:

(4 1$<'Will I still need J'),(<'Will I still read J'),(<'When I''m'),<64
or

        4 1$'Will I still need J';'Will I still read J';'When I''m';64

I thought I was copying something from a post from Dan Bron which I thought might be enclose

population -.^:(-.@:speak_out) &:>~/ @:|.@:; communists ; social_democrats ; trade_unionists ; Jews ; me

I see now that I have it backwards (thats what dyslexia does)

Then I look up enclose and I get this


The rhematic rules of J apply reasonably well to English phrases:
   words p=: 'Nobly, nobly, Cape St. Vincent'
+-----+-+-----+-+----+---+-------+
|Nobly|,|nobly|,|Cape|St.|Vincent|
+-----+-+-----+-+----+---+-------+

   >words p
Nobly
,
nobly
,
Cape
St.
Vincent

this reminds me of a game we used to play as kids where clues were hidden and when you found one clue it told you where to look for the next

I'll be in Cape St Vincent soon and let you know what I find

Thanks

Hello Donna;

Good to see an eager J learner.

Know this:

  'Will I still need J';'Will I still read J';'When I''m';64

Is equivalent to your expression.

Hi,

It is 13:06, and  ALL IS FINE UNDER THE SUN.

From what I tested it seems that I must execute that command everytime I
open J (win). I remember that there is a file where I should put that command. Could you tell me wich file. I am relearning at 64 ( today), nice birthday gift.

Thanks to everyone who contributed.

A wild guess is that some action is damaging the floating point state. Some dll calls damage the state and require a reset in order for the J Engine to continue running properly. For this reason the % option was added to the cd
mechanism. Please do the following test:

start J
run sentence:
  'kernel32 CloseHandle % i i' 15!:0 [0
the result is two boxed zeros

now try your troubling sentence:
  %0 1 2 3
