Can someone help me understand why this is going
wrong here? I've been staring at it for half an
hour and can't figure it out. Basically, I need
to understand how to discover what the difference
is between two variables, denoted y and yy. In
the failing application, under debug I see
y n 2$(<5$'year1'),(<4$'year')
I don't think I can get a similar report for the global yy.
Thanks for any suggestions!

z i. yy NB. this works!

z i. y NB. this doesn't, for the zero'th element
3 1
NB. at this point I'm trying to test whether y and yy are the same

NB. but J thinks they're different
