Here is my data again, this time with the shape after each step:
{. a
┌───┬───┬───┬───┬─-─┬-──┬──-────┬┐
│Date│Price│Open│High│Low│Vol.│Change %││
└───┴───┴───┴───┴-──┴─-─┴─-─────┴┘
$ = 8
0 { ({. a)
┌───┐
│Date│
└───┘
$ = no value displayed
> 0 { ({. a)
Date
$ = 4
toupper (> 0 { ({. a))
DATE
$ = 4
'DATE' -: toupper (> 0 { ({: a))
0
$ = no value displayed
Does this give any more helpful info to answer my question: since DATE
and DATE are identical, why is the value of the match false (0)?
