No worries, Pete
I may be misreading how you are using this, but does the following have any
application?
s=. 'test'
(s)=. 4
test
4
You can assign results to a variable within parentheses that is evaluated and
the assignment is to the value of the variable

Bob, Jimmy, Pascal --
Just plain old Do fercrisake.
Omg, I feel like an idiot!
(Happy, o'course)
See, I'll be using the quotes in one string
as the var NAME that this function's output
will be assigned to. A little cumbersome,
but hey...
Thanks again!
Cheers back!!!

This question must be too clueless to ask,
but two hours with NuVoc leaves me still
wondering --
I need to write a function invocation with
its numeric x and y each in quotes as TEXT:
'1+1' FUNCTION '2+2'
I want the function then, after displaying
x and y, to remove their quotes and execute
their innards.
What (a primitive, I assume!) will convert
each quote to an executable expression?
Thanks in advance.
Sorry to test your patience!
Pete
