When we use a phrase such as 4 $. y the value four signals selection
among discrete options. I'm wondering if there is a term used to refer
to such arguments?
When discussing 4 $. $. with my eldest son, he teased me by saying
"Apparently 'four' means something to J users other than what four means
to everybody else. It means 'Jump through a hoop.'" I responded, "It
means jump through hoop four, actually." So, if there isn't an
established word for these specification arguments, I'll probably call
them hoops.
