Following on with the explanation of Tracy, one can define
an anonymous explicit verb with an argument as below. Note that
the result is the application of the verb to its arg. This is
useful if you need a single execution of the verb, in an initialization
phase for instance. The verb is temporary, takes no (permanent) space
in the symbol table or elsewhere. The arg could have been defined
in a previous line.
asd =: 3 : 0 "0 ] 1 2
t =. 2*(1+y)
1+t*(t-1)+i.4
)
asd NB. asd is _not_ the verb definition here!
