Didn't we finish this thread? How about a new thread, possibly with
summaries from earlier discussions? This thread was only about indexed
replacement and Amend? /Erling

In most languages indexed replacement is indexed replacement? In J and in
most functional languages it is not? You get a brand new variable? So, why
give the user the flawed impression he can still do indexed replacement and
do amendments to variables/nouns? And at the same time in tacit code we
pretend to only have functions? No variables/nouns to be amended? Just
functional transformations?
