how about this: v: a function that will return random numbers to 10 v=: 3 : '?y=.10' NB. i know there exists a better expression than this one then how about an adverb ^:: that would allow summing a verb? + ^:: v so lets say, in the simplest case, that ^:: continues to get items from the verb until 0. so if 5 successive evaluations of v resulted in 1 2 3 4 0 , the result of the above expression is 10. obviously simplistic, but it should work, shouldn't it? forget lazy evaluation -- just add another adverb (because, now, i'm obviously the expert on adverbs, like /. say :) ta, jack ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
