Hello;
I'm sorry. I'm just ruminating out loud about the non-intuitive effects
of the dot, which can throw me even after 17 years of J exposure.
We now return you....

Hello;
Something interesting happens when the exponent is an actual number:
27*^0.2
32.9779
This suggests:
27 ^ (^. 2)
Which takes me back to the documentation....
Sorry, but I really don't understand what you mean above.
We talked about the number
T =: 27 * (^. 2)
What does that have to do with any of the above two?
