Yes, my bad. I did sort and forgot that I had. I should have caught that silliness - sorry for the noise.
This was a problem that I worked on in APL back in 1971 when I had a tape with many thousands of data points and wanted to put them in buckets (actually just count them) - it was that struggle that inspired putting /. into j. The problem was made a little harder by only having 64kbytes of workspace....
