Sorry for jumping in late.

The Haskell expression you showed here is called a list comprehansion which can be easily formulated as

map f xs

and this is in J simply:

f xs

In Haskell (and other languages I'm sure) one can express the idea of "such that" to denote one expression depending on another. In Haskell we can use the syntax:

[ f x | x <- xs ]

which means
  "the list of all f x
such that x is drawn from xs."

So | is syntactically similar to the English "such that". (and very much like | in mathematical sets)

I would like to know if J has a construct to express the above Haskell code.

Thanks,
Jon.
