Yes, and that utility exists in this idea: save for rank-0 arrays, every array is a vector in its outermost axis. What it is a vector of, depends on the array's rank. What do I mean by this statement? Why it's simple. A vector is a series of containers. For a rank-1 array. The vector is a series of containers for atoms. For a rank-2 array (a table), the vector is a series of containers for vectors. For a rank-3 array, the vector is a series of containers for tables. This is profound in it's ramifications. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
