100 timespacex '(+ <:) +:^:14 *:^:4 ] 8 '
5.5744e_6 3072
The &. x: is obviously much more generic and practical for generating "medium"
sized numbers.
100 timespacex ' 2 <: &. x:@^ 63 '
8.064e_6 5632
The importance of all this, btw, is that there is a significant size penalty to
storing extended integers, as well as a time/space compromise in working with
them.

Might this be the fastest way of getting 2^63-1, without x: ?
(<: + ] ) +:^:14 *:^:4 ] 8
9223372036854775807
worth noting:
+:^:62 ] 2
9.22337e18
+:^:61 ] 2
4611686018427387904
2 <: &. x:@^ 63
9223372036854775807

actually this is probably best:
2 <: &. x:@^ 63
9223372036854775807
3!:0 ] 2 <: &. x:@^ 63
4

Here's an interesting bug (I can't call this kind of issue a feature if
it's not documented in the dictionary, can I?):
9223372036854775809
9223372036854775807
(And that's probably more important than the "using ^" issue.)
Thanks,
