Subject: [Jprogramming] Untying the Gordian Knot: Agreement in J

Hello

I have been reading Martin Neitzel's paper on verb ranks from APL
Quote Quad '95. That helped me deepen my understanding on the subject,
though I don't feel completely secure with my understanding yet.

On section 10 Excercises for Rank, there is a problem answered at the end:

[quote]
The reshape verb $ has dyadic ranks (1 _). It is no problem to
evaluate 3 2 4 $ 'abc', but try to find some invalid rank
specification n in 3 2 4 $"n 'abc'!
[/quote]

I couldn't come up with such n that throws an error. Any ideas?
