I suspect the difficulty arose because of the need to recognise that table
is an ambivalent verb. I admire the skill of members of the forum with the
tacit form but I think the simplest thing to do is to recognise that table
is an ambivalent adverb and write the obvious expressions for the formatted
result. Dan of course achieved this in a different and very elegant way.
tab =: 1 : 0
1 1}. _1 _1 }. ": y u table y
