Ric,

    e3=: 5 5$ e3
   f=.1 2 3 5 8 13 21
   (e3 e."1 f)} (5 5$<'. '),:<'@ '
|stack error: e3
|   (    e3 e."1 f)}(5 5$<'. '),:<'@ '
   ;"1 (e3 e."1 f)} (5 5$<'. '),:<'@ '

When does ;"1  apply if there is already a "stack error" without?

Linda

Linda, you'll find f explained and defined in the original post. It is the
Fibonacci series.
