Hi,
Yes, your comments are definitely helpful and appreciated.
To be more specific, I think that the first and last lines are a nice fit
for the under conjunction but I feel my tacit construct has too many
parentheses.
I was wondering if there was a way to simplify it. Gerunds might help, but
I'll have to delve deeper in their use as I only started using them in
problem 8 to implement the comparison operations.
Some of the syntax still puzzles me :
3&{. ` , ` }. `: 0 a=:1+i.5
1 2 3 0 0
1 2 3 4 5
2 3 4 5 0
3&{. ` , ` 3&}. `: 0 a
|domain error
| 3&{.`,`3&}.`:0 a
3&{. ` , ` (3&}.) `: 0 a
1 2 3 0 0
1 2 3 4 5
4 5 0 0 0
