Hello Roger;
Fair enough. Implementors have their priorities.

Hello Roger;
Why would that be? The ellipsis kicks in much quicker than
that, at
around 256 characters, so any value beyond that limit need not
be generated.

The difference is that Joey's expression did not
try to generate the display of 1e8#52 but Paul's
expression did, and it's in the generation of
that display that the limit error was signaled.

In J32 on Windows, 100000000 # 52 gives a limit error. What
does this
mean? I can't see anything stating that there is a limit in
array size
(other than available memory) in the documentation.
Is it possible for me to create a hundred-million entry
array? (Such
an array of integers would be 400M in size, I have 2G so
memory
should>not be an issue).
