Hello Henry;
That's one way to do it. Using n&v makes 'each' behave better, not
giving the pesky length error.
'r<0>2.0'&8!:2 each A
Using 8!:0 which gives a boxed result also works, and you dont need & :
'r<0>2.0' 8!:0 each A

The problem with your original 'each' was that you
needed to box x:
(<'r<0>2.0') (8!:2) each A

Subject: [Jprogramming] Formatting then Boxing a vector
Hi.
I have no excuse but I couldn't seem to get this to work. I'm
currently
applying a learning curve to a production plan and I encountered this
problem.
I have a list of numbers:
A=: 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
I need to convert them to a formatted boxed string like this:
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
|06|07|08|09|10|11|12|13|
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
I know I can do it this way:
< 'r<0>2.0' (8!:2) 6
+--+
|06|
+--+
When get the wrong results when I try to do it this way:
< 'r<0>2.0' (8!:2) A
+----------------+
|0607080910111213|
+----------------+
'r<0>2.0' (8!:2) each A
|length error
| 'r<0>2.0' (8!:2)each A
'r<0>2.0' (8!:2) box every A
0607080910111213
'r<0>2.0' (8!:2) each box every A
|length error
| 'r<0>2.0' (8!:2)each box every A
Of course I could just use a for_xyz. Loop and be done with it but its
irking me that I can't seem to make it work.
Thanks for the help.
r/Alex
