That makes sense, I just recalled that u@v w was applied to the whole
of w.
Thanks Henry

My recollection of early J is that @ never had infinite rank, but the
arithmetic verbs did. Then the rank of arithmetic verbs was changed
to 0, and phrases like
u@+
had to be rewritten as
u@(+"_)
That led to introduction of u@:v to mean (u@(v"_)) .

Thanks everyone,
your comments really cleared things up for me. I really appreciate your
efforts to support J-newcomers with such detailed explanations.
Regards,
Thomas
