The relevant passage in II B ( http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/dictb.htm ) is this: Commonly these individual shapes agree, but if not, they are first brought to a common rank by introducing leading unit axes to any of lower rank, and are then brought to a common shape by *padding* with an appropriate *fill*element: space for a character array,0 for a numeric array, and a boxed empty list for a boxed array. For example: The fill element used for this purpose is not subject to !. .
