Thanks Raul and Kip, Here is how I should have written the four verbs:
NB. m&v y is defined as m v y
NB. u&n y is defined as y u n
f=: 13 :'4&* y'
g=: 13 :'4*& y'
h=: 13 :'&*4 y'
i=: 13 :'*&4 y'
f
4&*
g
3 : '4*& y'
h
3 : '&*4 y'
i
*&4
5!:4 <'f'
-- 4
-- & -+- *
5!:4 <'g'
-- 3
-- : -+- ,:'4*& y'
5!:4 <'h'
-- 3
-- : -+- ,:'&*4 y'
5!:4 <'i'
-- *
-- & -+- 4
f 5
20
g 5
|syntax error: g
| 4*&y
h 5
|syntax error: h
| &*4 y
i 5
20
My remaining question is about the trees for g and h . How did the
,: show up in the trees? What does it mean? Is it a signal that there is
a syntax error?
Linda
