Teeny correction: this phase is 'word recognition', which comes before parsing.

For example, in an explicit definition, words are recognized when the definition is first encountered.  Parsing happens every time a sentence is executed.

Right, numbers in a row is recognized as a single token. This is done in
the parser phase.

   ;: 'val=. 0 1 { ''mevema'''

Hello, all!

I'm stumped and need to know why the following "from" problem occurs

No problem when numeric values are used: ...
Problem when formulas are used instead of numeric values: ...
Why does "from" work with numeric values but not with formulaic
versions of those same values for use inside a "for_j" loop to handle
multiple cases?
Tremendous thanks to everyone who replied to my question!  You're great!

I learn something new (and valuable) every time I ask a question--and
I guess that's the way it ought to be.  What tripped me up was that
the *two* numbers were a *single* noun, whereas the *two* formulas
were *two* nouns.  Lesson learned!

Again, thanks to all for clearing this up in my mind!
