In your statement (}. - }:)^:order list the value represented by 'order' becomes a part of the derived verb which receives the value represented by 'list'. In contrast, with order (}. - }:)@]^:[ list your top level verb takes two arguments. In other words, you put the number represented by 'order' in one of two different places because you are doing different things with it. Does this help? -- Raul ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
