I haven't finished reading the docs yet, so forgive me if this is
answered someplace: is there a way to terminate the integers function
based on a calculation? For example, suppose I want to generate all
the primes < 10,000.
p:i.500
That generates the first five primes, but has no way of knowing
whether that's enough or too much. I'd like to use something like
p:i._
which would me give me all the primes (to infinity) but then put a
limit on it so that it stops at a certain point -- in this case, when
one of the generated primes is about to exceed 10,000.
Is there a way to do that without resorting to a traditional loop?
regards,
geoff
