Hello I am looking for a verb(cless) that does something similar to Less(-.) but counting the elimination, for example:
'abcabbe' -. 'abbe' c 'abcabbe' cless 'babe' NB. get rid of y letters counting the occurrences 'cab' It is easier to define such a verb recursively: 'abcabbe' cless 'babe' equald to 'e' cless~ 'b' cless~ 'a' cless~ 'b' cless~ 'abcabbe' I think recursive definition isn't a usual J-ic approach. How would you implement such a verb elegantly(with which I mean short)?
