There is now a script for data-flow tree depiction stored as a WorkInProgress.
The effect is analogous to that of system function 5!:4, but differs in orientation and operation placement. The "tree" depicts a generally downward flow of information (data), with deviations from a strictly branching pattern when depicting modifiers, Hooks or Forks, or catenations. Working on this program has given me a clearer view of some of the syntactic workings of J. I hope that my choices of depiction can help others to gain such understanding more readily. Using this program has helped to clarify the structure of some complex statements I wrote long ago, and guided me in improving them. A fairly detailed description, with examples and a link to the script, is stored as ArtAnger/FlowTree: http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/ArtAnger/FlowTree If you choose to reply to this posting or to others' subsequent postings, please take the time to delete most or all of the prior message, to make it easier to find the new content, and to reduce the burden on the mail systems and the archives.
