It would be an interesting exercise to build a J verb that produced all the
possible J constants up to a given length.  

Another approach would be to generate all possible strings up to a given
length, containing J only constant characters, and then reduce these to
valid J constants.  But this approach doesn't really scale well.  

For example, reading DoJ parts I & Constants, it seems like this is the
valid universe of J constant characters:

           jcc =. '_.',DIGITS,LCALPHA

and to test for even a modest, 1 character improvement to Raul's solution:

           #jcc
        38
           (#jcc)^7x
        114415582592

would involve ~115 billion possibilities.
