Dear J Language

Raul's is what you want if you're happy with
an explicit answer. However, if by "tactic"
you mean "tacit" then this might be what you
want.

NB. Given
  open  =: 100 101 103 104 103 102
  close =: 101 100 104 104 105 103
NB. make a 2-row matrix using ,: "laminate" open (,:)close 100 101 103 104 103 102
101 100 104 104 105 103
NB. study use of u/. "oblique" ... open (%//.@:,:)close 100 1 1.03 1 0.990385 0.971429 103

NB. clean up ends if you need to ...
  open ([EMAIL PROTECTED]:@(%//.@:,:))close
1 1.03 1 0.990385 0.971429

NB. If the quotes are columns in a table,
NB. eg (for your example) ...
  tab=:(open,.close)1 4}"1(100+?6 5$ 6)

NB. you can do this sort of thing...
 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]:@(%//.)@:|:)1 4 {"1 tab
1 1.03 1 0.990385 0.971429

how about
+/ open(index+1) % close(index)

Perhaps you mean
  +/ (}.open) % }:close
?

If not, could you specify more precisely what it is that
you mean?

Thanks,
